Document Summary

Rate= function of concentration versus time (different units depending on overall order k= rate constant (also different units: explaining how a rate law for a chemical reaction is determined. Two methods: for explanation problems see the practical section. The reaction rate at a particular time, given by the slope of a tangent to a plot of reactant concentration vs. time. The instantaneous rate occurring as soon as the reactants are mixed, that is, at t=0: describing the relationship between the order of a reactant and the stoichiometric coefficient for the reactant in the overall, balanced chemical equation. Coefficients are not rate orders no no no no: describing how the order of each reactant appearing in the rate law is determined. *look at method of instantaneous rates: describing how the rate of a chemical reaction changes as a function of time.
