1.7.2 Measuring Rates of Reaction Flashcards
1
Q
The rate of reaction is the speed at which a chemical reaction takes place and has units mol dm-3 s-1 or mol dm-3 min-1
The
A
change in amount / time
2
Q
During a reaction, the reactants are used up and changed into products
This means that as the reaction proceeds, the concentration of the reactants is ………….. and the concentration of the products is ……………
A
decreasing
increasing
3
Q
Because of this, the rate of the reaction is not the same throughout the reaction but changes
The rate of reaction during the reaction can be calculated from a
