Concept introduction:
Rate equation for the general reaction
The rate of the reaction is proportinal to the concentration of A to the power of x, is
The rate of the reaction is proportional to the concentration of B to the power of y is
Then the rate equation becomes,
Order of this reaction is the sum of the powers to which all reactant concentrations appearing in the rate law are raised.
Half-life is the time required for one half of a reactant to react.
Half-life for a second order reaction is
