rate of disappearance
How do we calculate a rate law if we are given the rate of disappearance instead of the rate of formation?

Re: rate of disappearance
It would be in terms of the compound that is being consumed. For example,
A —> B + C
R = k[A]
A —> B + C
R = k[A]

Re: rate of disappearance
Because we will be studying rate constants bases on reactants, the rates of disappearance of reactants are likely what we'll be basing our rate laws on for the final

Re: rate of disappearance
We have to consider the rate of disappearance for the reactants so I think I would use the mol-to-mol ratio to calculate how much reactant disappeared.
