Rate Equation

- Reaction rate tells you how fast reactants are converted to products

- You can work out the rate of reaction by working out the gradient of a graph

- Pick 2 points on a line of best fit, draw a line vertically from one and horizontally from the other, gradient = change in y/change in x.

- on a curved graph, draw a tangent to the curve at the point you need and work out the gradient of the tangent.

-Rate equation links reaction rate to rate constants

-for the general reaction A + B -> C + D, the rate equation is…
