“At constant temperature the rate of a chemical reaction is directly proportional to the product of the molar concentrations of reactants each term raised to the power equal to the Stoichiometric co-efficient as represented by balanced chemical equation.”
Let us consider a chemical reaction
aA + bB → Product.
Where a, b are stoichiometric co-efficients.
Then,
According to law of mass action,
Rate of reaction, (r) ยต [A]a[B]b
Where [A] and [B] are molar concentration of A and B.
\ r = K[A]a[B]b
