Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

The rate law for a reaction is given as rate = k[A][B]². What is the overall order of the reaction?
  • Step 1: Identify the rate law given in the question, which is rate = k[A][B]².
  • Step 2: Look at the concentration terms in the rate law. Here, [A] has a power of 1 and [B] has a power of 2.
  • Step 3: Add the powers of the concentration terms together. So, 1 (from [A]) + 2 (from [B]) = 3.
  • Step 4: The overall order of the reaction is the total sum of the powers, which is 3.
