the rate of reaction is defined as the change in concentration of reactant ( or product ) in a particular time interval . Unit of rate of reaction is mol L^-1 min^-1 and so on . It is average rate if change in concentration is measured over bigger interval of time .

relative definition:

The rate of reaction refers to the speed at which the products are formed from the reactants in a chemical reaction. It gives some insight into the time frame under which a reaction can be completed. For example, the reaction rate of the combustion of cellulose in fire is very high and the reaction is completed in less than a second.

absolute definition:

The rate of reaction or reaction rate is the speed at which reactants are converted into products. When we talk about chemical reactions, it is a given fact that rate at which they occur varies by a great deal. Some chemical reactions are nearly instantaneous, while others usually take some time to reach the final equilibrium.

Factors affecting rate of reaction:

nature of reaction

  • The rate of reaction highly depends on the type and nature of the reaction. As mentioned earlier, few reactions are naturally faster than others while some reactions are very slow.

  • The physical state of reactants, number of reactants, complexity of reaction and other factors highly influence the reaction rate as well.
  • The rate of reaction is generally slower in liquids when compared to gases and slower in solids when compared to liquids. Size of the reactant also matters a lot. The smaller the size of reactant, the faster the reaction.

effect of concentration on reaction rate:

  • According to the collision theory, the rate of reaction increases with the increase in the concentration of the reactants.
  • As per the law of mass action, the chemical reaction rate is directly proportional to the concentration of reactants.
  • This implies that the chemical reaction rate increases with the increase in concentration and decreases with the decrease in the concentration of reactants.
  • Time plays a major role in changing the concentration of reactants and products. Therefore, even time is a vital factor affecting the reaction rate.

now Question arises, how temperature affect reaction rate?

  • Ans:- According to collision theory, a chemical reaction that takes place at a higher temperature generates more energy than a reaction at a lower temperature.
  • This is because colliding particles will have the required activation energy at high temperature and more successful collisions will take place.
  • There are some reactions that are independent of temperature. Reactions without an activation barrier are examples of chemical reactions that are independent of temperature.

Average rate of reaction:

rate of disappearance of A

\large\sf{ \dfrac{[A]_2 - [A]_1}{t_2 - t_1} = - \dfrac{\Delta[A]}{\Delta t}}

rate of disappearance of B

\large\sf{ \dfrac{[B]_2 - [B]_1}{t_2 - t_1} = - \dfrac{\Delta[B]}{\Delta t}}

\large\rm \therefore average rate of reaction:

\large\sf{ - \dfrac{\Delta[A]}{\Delta t} = \dfrac{\Delta[B]}{\Delta t}}
