The exponents in a rate law describe the effects of the reactant concentrations on the reaction rate and define the reaction order. Consider a reaction for which the rate law is: rate = k[A]m[B]n If m is 1, the reaction is first order with respect to A. If the exponent is 2, the reaction is second order with respect to A. If n is 1, the reaction is first order in B. If m or n is zero, the reaction is zero order in A or B. If m = 1 and n = 1, the overall order of the reaction is second. (m + n = 1 + 1 = 2). 1.
