Generation

The reaction rate measures how fast reactants are consumed or products are formed in a chemical reaction, typically expressed as change in concentration over time. The rate law is a mathematical equation that relates the reaction rate to the concentrations of reactants, written as: **rate = k[A]^m[B]^n**, where k is the rate constant, [A] and [B] are reactant concentrations, and m and n are the reaction orders (which must be determined experimentally). The reaction orders indicate how the rate depends on each reactant's concentration, while the rate constant k is temperature-dependent and specific to each reaction.
