The rate equation for a reaction expresses the reaction rate as the product of a rate constant, denoted by the symbol , and the concentrations of the reactants raised to certain powers. The concentrations are measured in , and the power to which a given concentration is raised is called its . The temperature dependence of the rate constant is described by the equation. Most reactions can be broken down into a series of steps; the reaction's . The slowest step is said to be the rate-determining or rate- step. Only reactants that appear this step can appear in the rate equation.
The equilibrium constant Kp is essentially the same as Kc, except that it is constructed using pressures instead of concentrations. For a given species, this pressure is equal to the total pressure inside the reaction container, multiplied by the mole fraction of the species. The mole fraction of the species is equal to the of the species, divided by the total number of moles in the container.
