Chemical Kinetics

study of factors that affect rates of chemical reactions, such as temp.

reaction rate

how fast reaction makes products or uses reactants

rate

how much quanity changes in given period of time

instanteous rate

change in concentration if coefficents of balanced equation aren't all same

catalysts

substances that affect speed of reaction without being consumed (usually makes reaction faster)

reaction stops when?

reactants run out or equilbrium is reached

when asking for rate law?

write out rate equation

for rate equation products side is?

positive

in rate equation reactant side is ?

negative
