State whether the statements are true or false. 1. The instantaneous reaction is always equal and constant. 2. Similar elements tend to react similarly, but may do so at different reaction rates 3. The rate law for a chemical reaction is always expressed as a product of the initial concentration of products of the reaction. 4. Chemical entities can be in any orientation during an effective solution. 5. The reaction mechanism explains exactly what occurs in a chemical reaction. 6. It is not necessary to break existing bonds in molecules in order to form new bonds. 7. The frequency of collisions and the proportion of those collisions that are effective determine the rate of the given reaction
