Expert Solution
Step 1
  • Rate law:- This describes the relationship between rate of a chemical reaction and its reactant's concentration.
  • Rate constant(K) :- It is the ratio of the rate of reaction and the concentration of the reactants reacting in the reaction.
  • Order of a reaction (n):- It is determined experimentally and is the power dependence of rate on the reactant's concentration.
  • According to initial rate method,

         r=K[A]x[B]ywhere,r=rate of reactionK=rate constant of reaction[A]= concentration of A reactant[B]=concentration of B reactantx=order of reactant Ay=order of reactant B
