A constant in the rate equation. The larger it is the faster the rate of reaction.
1 of 5
Rate-determining Step
The slowest step in a reaction mechanism which determines the overall rate of reaction.
2 of 5
Dynamic Equilibrium
When the forwar and backward reactions of a reversible reaction are happening at exactly the same rate, so the concentration of reactants and products doesn't change.
3 of 5
Equilibrium Constant, Kc
A ratio worked out from the concentration of the products and reactants once a reversible has reached equilibrium.
4 of 5
Le Chatelier's Principle
If there's a change in concentration, pressure or temperature, an equilibrium will be move to help counteract the change.
