rate equations

Cards (6)

  • rate of reaction
    defined as the change in concentration of a substance in a given time
  • factors that affect rate
    • concentration of solution
    • pressure of gas
    • surface area of solid
    • temperature
    • catalyst
  • rate equation
    rate= K[A]m[B]nK\left[A\right]^m\left[B\right]^n
  • rate determining step
    the slowest step in reaction mechanism
  • the arrhenius equation
    k= AeEaRTAe^{\frac{-Ea}{RT}}
  • rearranged arrhenius equation
    lnK=\ln K=lnAEaRT\ln A-\frac{Ea}{RT}
