Re: Rate Law

The rate law gives the order of the reaction and using it you can solve for the rate constant to find how fast the reaction is occurring.

Re: order of a rxn

You can determine the order of the reaction by adding the number of moles of each reactant. The order will tell you which integrated rate law graph will produced be linear when compared to time.
