Chapter 20, Problem 114SAE

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Effect of change in the concentration of ammonia on the rate of reaction should be determined.

Concept introduction:

A rate law expression defines the relationship between the rate of reaction and the concentration of reactants.

Consider a reaction,

$a\text{A}+b\text{B}\to \text{Products}$

The rate law for the above equation can be defined as,

$r=k{\left[\text{A}\right]}^a{\left[\text{B}\right]}^b$
