  1. Law of conservation of mass
  2. Rate law
  3. Le Chatelier's principle
  4. Gibbs free energy

Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

The rate of a reaction is directly proportional to the product of the concentrations of the reactants raised to their respective powers. This statement defines which law?
  • Step 1: Understand that a chemical reaction involves reactants that change into products.
  • Step 2: Know that the rate of a reaction is how fast the reactants turn into products.
  • Step 3: Learn that the rate of a reaction can depend on the concentrations of the reactants.
  • Step 4: Recognize that 'directly proportional' means if you increase the concentration of a reactant, the rate of the reaction increases.
  • Step 5: Understand that the statement mentions 'the product of the concentrations of the reactants raised to their respective powers', which is a mathematical way to express how each reactant affects the rate.
  • Step 6: Conclude that this entire explanation is describing the rate law of a chemical reaction.
