Representation of Rate Expressions

The results of the previous section are now applied and different kinetic systems examined. Stoichiometric equations are written for irreversible, reversible, simultaneous, and consecutive reactions. Each is followed by the describing rate equation. The next section contains a detailed analysis of the different methods of solution for several of these kinetic systems. The units and notations of the various reaction velocity constants employed are carefully reviewed at the conclusion of this section. [Pg.53]

Some of the more common and elementary chemical reactions are presented below for constant volume systems. [Pg.53]

This is an idealized reaction system. It has been shown that all real zero order reactions can only be represented in this form at high concentrations. [Pg.53]

For many complex reactions, the order is often a large integer or a fraction. [Pg.54]

Similar equations can be written for third and higher order reversible reactions. [Pg.55]
