Unique Rate [ENDORSED]

[Kellina Tran 2I]

What defines the unique rate of a reaction?

[kaushalrao2H]

the rate of reduction/formation of a reactant/product divided by its respective stoichiometric coefficient. every single species in a chemical reaction should have the same unique rate.

[Andrew Nguyen 2I]

The unique rate is the specific rate for the reaction (it does not relate directly to any reactant/product's individual rate in the reaction).

However, using the stoichiometric coefficients of the reactants/products, the unique rate can be used to find the specific reactants'/products' individual rates.

[Yeyang Zu 2J]

If 2A+3B—>5C
Unique rate equals to -1/2 * d[A]/dt = -1/3 * d[B]/dt=+1/5 * d[C]/dt

[Timothy Kim 1B]

Its important to note that everything in the reaction should have the same unique rate.

Yes I will discuss this in class today.

Happy Friday!
