Document Summary

Reaction rate change in concentration per unit time (can refer to products or reactants) Can be affected by concentration, temperature, surface area (particle size), catalysts/inhibitors. Reaction rates are always > 0 (but remember: change in concentration of a substance being consumed is < 0) For a reaction forming compound a , rate = Units of reaction rate are always concentration/time (usually mol l 1 s 1 or m s 1) also need to consider stoichiometry of the reaction (balanced equation): for the reaction aa bb, reaction rate = . The rate law for a reaction is a relationship between reaction rate and reactant concentrations. For the general reaction aa + bb + products, the rate law is. Normally a m, b n . Units of k depend on the overall reaction order (note: units of rate are still always mol l 1 s 1)
