Question

Hi all, I'm learning about Rates of Reactions in class and am stuck on one thing. How do you find reaction order?

Answer 1

One way to determine that a reaction is first order is by plotting the natural log of the concentration of a reactant against time. If the result is a straight line, the reaction is dirst order.

Answer 2

*first

Answer 3

If the graph of concentration vs time us a straight line, then the reaction has zero order.

Answer 4

For second order, the graph of 1/concentration vs time is a straight line.

Answer 5

This information is for reactions of the type A -> Products and concentration is of the reactant.

Answer 6

Thanks so much!

Answer 7

Glad I could help. :)
