Specific Rate Constant - Easy Science
Specific Rate Constant: A constant relating the concentrations of reactants to the rate of the reaction.
Reaction Mechanism - Easy Science
Reaction Mechanism: The series in which a chemical reaction takes place, expressed in a series of chemical equations.
Rate Determining Step - Easy Science
Rate Determining Step: The slowest step in a chemical reaction that determines the rate of the overall reaction.
Rate Law - Easy Science
Rate Law: An expression relating the rate of a reaction to the concentration of the reactants.
Intermediate - Easy Science
Intermediate: A substance produced in one step of a reaction mechanism, and consumed in another.
Homogeneous Reaction - Easy Science
Homogeneous Reaction: A reaction in which all of the reactants and products are in the same phase, (gas, liquid or solid).
Homogeneous Catalyst - Easy Science
Homogeneous Catalyst: Catalytic reaction where the catalyst is in the same phase as the reactants, (solid, liquid, or gas).
Heterogeneous Reaction - Easy Science
Heterogeneous Reaction: A reaction in which the reactants are in two different phases (solid, liquid, or gas).
Heterogeneous Catalyst - Easy Science
Heterogeneous Catalyst: A catalyst that is in a different phase from the phase of the reactants.
Collision Theory - Easy Science
Collision Theory: States that atoms, ions, and molecules must collide in order to react.
Activated Complex - Easy Science
Activated Complex: An intermediate or transitional structure formed during the course of a reaction.
Spectator Ion - Easy Science
Spectator Ion: An ion that is present but does not participate in a reaction.
Single Replacement Reaction - Easy Science
Single Replacement Reaction: A chemical reaction where one element replaces another element in a compound.
Net Ionic Equation - Easy Science
Net Ionic Equation: An ionic equation that shows only the particles that undergo a change in a reaction.
