A sample from this course

One topic, as StudyPath teaches it.

Reaction rates and rate expressions

Reaction rates and rate expressions are the cornerstone of analytical chemistry because they allow chemists to quantify how fast a reaction proceeds and to design experiments that optimise analytical performance. Mastering the concepts of rate laws, reaction order, rate constants and the methods used to determine them is essential for solving kinetic problems in the NUC CCMAS, NBTE and NCCE examinations.
