Lesson outcome
I can describe what happens during a chemical reaction as it progresses over time and interpret graphs showing how the instantaneous rate of the reaction changes.
Show transcript
Most chemical reactions start more quickly and slow down as they progress.
The rate of a chemical reaction is equal to the amount of product formed per unit time (or reactant used per unit time).
The mean rate of a chemical reaction is different to the instantaneous rate that changes throughout the reaction.
Graphs of mass, volume, or concentration vs. time can all represent the changing rate of a chemical reaction.
The gradient of a rate of reaction graph can be calculated from a tangent drawn at a point on the curve.
