1.

FLASHCARD

Front

Define rate of reaction.

Back

The amount of reactant used up per second

2.

FLASHCARD

Front

What's the formula to calculate the mean rate of reaction in terms of reactants used?

Back

(quantity of reactant used) ÷ (time taken)

3.

FLASHCARD

Front

What's the formula to calculate the mean rate of reaction in terms of product formed?

Back

(quantity of product formed) ÷ (time taken)

4.

FLASHCARD

Front

What are the two possible units for rate of reaction?

Back

g/s or cm³/s (where s is seconds)

5.

FLASHCARD

Front

How can you tell the fastest rate of reaction from graphs of 'volume of product formed' against 'time'?

Back

The graph with the steepest gradient is the fastest.

6.

FLASHCARD

Front

How can you tell a reaction has completed from a graph of 'volume of product formed' against 'time'?

Back

When the gradient becomes zero (a straight horizontal line).

7.

FLASHCARD

Front

What is a tangent?

Back

A straight line that touches a curve at a point but doesn't cross the curve

8.

FLASHCARD

Front

How can the rate of a reaction be shown at a point in time on a graph?

Back

by drawing a tangent

9.

FLASHCARD

Front

How can the rate of a reaction at a point in time be calculated from a graph?

Back

1. Draw a tangent on the graph at the point in time 2. Rate of reaction = gradient of the tangent = change in y ÷ change in x

10.

FLASHCARD

Front

Why does the rate of a reaction decrease over time?

Back

because the number of reactant particles available to react decreases as they are turned into products
