Edexcel IAL Chemistry A2 11.1 Kinetics terms and rate equations
Read each exponent as the order for that reactant, add exponents for overall order and rearrange the rate equation before deriving the units of k.
How this is tested
- Write a rate equation from individual orders and state the overall reaction order.
- Calculate k and derive its units from the rate units and overall order.
- Predict a rate factor when one or more reactant concentrations are multiplied.
