State the Rate Law. 

V=k[A]m[B]n
100

How do you determine a rate?

experimentally or from stoichometry

only experimentally. rate cannot be determined using stoichiometry. 

100

What is Half life?

time needed for half of the rxn to be consumed. 

100

Is activation energy always negative or positive?

activation energy is always positive because the slope is always negative because the rate usually decreases over time!

y=b+mx

write the corresponding equation.

lnK= lnb -Ea/R (1/T)

200

K varies with -----, but does not vary with -----.

Temperature and concentration

200

finding concentration for t when concentration of A falls 1/10 of the initial 

0.1=e-kt

ln0.1=-kt


ln0.1/k=t
