Abstract

The relationships between various quantities compositely called rate of reaction are considered. Arguments are then presented for generally avoiding, in rate law expressions, variants of such quantities involving derivatives of concentrations, and universally equalizing quantities of this form for different reaction species.

  Experimentally, the rates of reactant consumption or rates of product formation are measured. These rates are related to, but different from, reaction rates. A reaction rate is a property of a given reaction, not of chemical species. The relationships ...
