Define rate of reaction
Change in concentration of a reactant or product per unit time
What is the equation for rate of reaction?
change in conc of reactants or products/time
If the order is zero to respect to the reactant, what does that mean?
Changing the conc of the reactant has no effect on the rate
What is the effect on rate in a first order reaction?
Rate is directly proportional to the concentration
What is the effect on rate in a second order reaction?
Change in rate = change in concentration squared
How is overall order of a reaction calculated?
Sum of orders
