molecularity

[Vanessa Reyes_1K]

Is the molecularity related to the amount of reactants in a reaction? Is it related to the order of the reaction?

[MadisonFuentes1G]

Molecularity depends on the number of reactants in a reaction (including the number of moles of a reactant).

[Angel Chen 2k]

Molecularity is the number of molecules that are in the rate determining step. Which is different from the order of reactants which is the sum of the powers to which the reactant concentrations are raised in the rate law.

[caseygilles 1E]

Molecularity is the number of species in an elementary step. The rate law for each elementary step follows directly from molecularity. For example somehting is bimolecular if the elementary step involves two reactants. A+B ---> P , rate=k[A][B]

[Vanadium Wang 4H]

The molecularity of a reaction is defined as the number of molecules or ions that participate in the rate determining step, the slowest step in a chemical reaction.
