Rates of reaction (Edexcel GCSE Chemistry): Flashcards

How fast reactants used up or products formed

Show efficiency; useful in industrial processes

rac{ ext{Amount of reactant used}}{ ext{Time taken}}

rac{ ext{Amount of product formed}}{ ext{Time taken}}

Faster reaction

Slower reaction

Grams ($g$) or cubic centimetres ($cm^3$)

Seconds ($s$)

$g/s$ or $cm^3/s$

$0.12 div 45 = 0.00267$ $g/s$
