If the concentration of a reactant remains constant (because it is a catalyst, or because it is in great excess with respect to the other reactants), its concentration can be included in the rate constant, leading to a pseudo–first-order (or occasionally pseudo–second-order) rate equation. For a typical second-order reaction with rate ...
In fact, however, the observed reaction rate is second-order in NO 2 and zero-order in CO, [5] with rate equation r = k[NO 2] 2. This suggests that the rate is determined by a step in which two NO 2 molecules react, with the CO molecule entering at another, faster, step. A possible mechanism in two elementary steps that explains the rate ...
where A and B are reactants C is a product a, b, and c are stoichiometric coefficients,. the reaction rate is often found to have the form: = [] [] Here is the reaction rate constant that depends on temperature, and [A] and [B] are the molar concentrations of substances A and B in moles per unit volume of solution, assuming the reaction is taking place throughout the volume of the ...

After van 't Hoff, chemical kinetics dealt with the experimental determination of reaction rates from which rate laws and rate constants are derived. Relatively simple rate laws exist for zero order reactions (for which reaction rates are independent of concentration), first order reactions , and second order reactions , and can be derived for ...
the simple first-order rate law described in introductory textbooks. Under these conditions, the concentration of the nucleophile does not affect the rate of the reaction, and changing the nucleophile (e.g. from H 2 O to MeOH) does not affect the reaction rate, though the product is, of course, different. In this regime, the first step ...

Using the Eyring equation, there is a straightforward relationship between ΔG ‡, first-order rate constants, and reaction half-life at a given temperature. At 298 K, a reaction with ΔG ‡ = 23 kcal/mol has a rate constant of k ≈ 8.4 × 10 −5 s −1 and a half life of t 1/2 ≈ 2.3 hours, figures that are often rounded to k ~ 10 −4 s ...
