Rate law
Rate law = [conc reactant A]^x x [conc reactant B]^y
Zeroth order
rate = k
no changes if concentration changes
unit = molL^-1s^-1
First order
rate = k[A]
will have same affect as concentration
units = s^-1
Second order
rate = [A]^2
effect changes with rate
units = Lmol^-1s^-1
Rate determining step
Will always be slow step unless intermediates are involved then you need to figure out using equilibrium constant
Oxidation
Loss of electrons
Electrons on RHS (products)
Form cation
More -ve reduction potential
Occurs at anode
Reduction
Gain of electrons
Electrons on LHS (reactants)
Form anion
More +ve reduction potential
Occurs at cathode
Ligand
Lewis bases, donate a pair of electrons to the transition metal ion
Transition metal ion is a lewis acid (accepts electrons)
