Chapter 6, Problem 48ASP

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The expression for the reaction is to be interpreted with the help of the given rate expression.

  $\text{Rate = k [EtBr] [NaSH]}$

Concept introduction: The rate of a chemical reaction can be defined as the change in the concentration of the reactant within the given time. The rate law states that the rate of the chemical reaction is directly proportional to the active concentration of the reactant molecules. The proportionality constant is called the rate constant.
