A sample from this course

One topic, as StudyPath teaches it.

Homogeneous rate equations and reaction order

This topic focuses on how the rate of a homogeneous reaction is expressed mathematically and how reaction order is interpreted from the rate equation. For exams, you must master the meanings of rate law, rate constant, overall and partial order, and how to identify order from concentration changes because these ideas are the basis for solving kinetics problems.
