Rate of reaction
The change in concentration of a reactant or product per unit time
1 of 16
Initial rate of reaction
The change in concentration of a reactant or product per unit time at the start of the reaction
2 of 16
Order
The power to which the concentration of the reactant is raised in the rate equation
3 of 16
Rate constant
The constant that links the rate of reaction with the concentrations of the reactants raised to the powers of their orders in the rate equation
4 of 16
Half life
The time taken for the concentration of a reactant to reduce by half
5 of 16
Dynamic equiibrium
The equilibrium that exists in a closed system when the rate of the forward reaction is equal to the rate of the reverse reaction
6 of 16

Acid-base pair
Is a pair of two species that transform into each other by gain or loss of a proton
13 of 16
Buffer solution
A system that minimizes pH changes on addition of small amounts of an acid or a base
14 of 16
Equivalence point
The point in a titration at which the volume of one solution has reacted exactly with the volume of the second solution. This matches the stoichiometry of the reaction that is taking place
15 of 16
Standard enthalpy change of neutralization
The energy change that accompanies the neutralization of an aqueous base to form one mole of H2O under standard conditions
