Introduction to Rate of Reaction

Chemical reaction

Chemical Reaction

The quantity of the reactant decreases while the quantity of the product increases in that reaction

Graphs of changes in quantities of reactant and product against time

Similarities and differences between fast reaction and slow reaction

Reaction	Fast reaction	Slow reaction
Reactant	Quantity decreases
Product	Quantity increases
Rate of reaction	Fast	Slow
Reaction time	Short	Long

Rate of reaction

\(\Large \frac {\text {Change in the quantity of reactant or product}}{ \text {Time taken for the change to occur}}\)
