Some reactions happen very fast like the precipitation of silver chloride. ... The speed or rate of a chemical reaction is the change in concentration of a reactant or product per unit time. To be specific, it can be expressed in terms of: the rate of decrease in concentration of any of the reactants.
Answer:
The average rate of a chemical reaction is the change in the concentration of the reactant or product divided by the time taken for that reaction to occur.
Explanation:
as an example:-
2Na + Cl2 → 2NaCl
The rate of a reaction is the change in concentration of the reactant or product divided by the change in time.Therefore, the formula of rate of reaction for the above reaction would be:
Rate of reaction = -(1/2)Δ[Na]/Δt = -Δ[Cl]/Δt = +(1/2)[NaCl]/Δt
