The how much speed it takes for two substances to make one product. Many factors can affect this including the temperature, the surface area, the concentration, the catalyst and the pressure (only applies for gases)

What describes a reaction that reaches equilibrium?
The product and reactants reach a final, unchanging level.
What effect does the concentration of reactants have on the the rate of a reaction?
The effect of concentration of reactants on rate of reaction depends on the ORDER of the reaction. For many reactions, as the concentration of reactants increases, the rate of reaction increases. There are exceptions however, for example a zero order reaction where the rate of reaction does not change with a change in the concentration of a reactant.
Could heat increase the rate of reaction?
if reaction is exothermic then on heating rate of reaction wil be low,and if reaction is endothermic then rate of reaction wil be high on heating
During dynamic equilibrium how do forward reaction rate and reverse reaction rate compare?
Equilibrium at this point means that the forward reaction and the backward reaction are taking place at the same rate. The formation of the products and the reactants are at equal rate.
What happened to the rate of a reaction as the reaction progresses?
In general, and depending on the order of the reaction, the rate will decrease as the reaction progresses.
What is meant by law of equilibrium?
Law of equilibrium - The principle that (at chemical equilibrium) in a reversible reaction the ratio of the rate of the forward reaction to the rate of the reverse reaction is a constant for that reaction.
What measures of how fast reaction occurs?
The measure is the rate of reaction.
What is the speed at which a reaction occurs called?
The chemical term is reaction rate.
What describes a reaction that reaches equilibrium?

What is the rate of the of a reaction?
An expression relating the rate of a reaction to the rate constant and the concentrations of the reactants
During dynamic equilibrium how do forward reaction rate and reverse reaction rate compare?
Equilibrium at this point means that the forward reaction and the backward reaction are taking place at the same rate. The formation of the products and the reactants are at equal rate.
What happened to the rate of a reaction as the reaction progresses?
In general, and depending on the order of the reaction, the rate will decrease as the reaction progresses.
What does the rate law use to determine the rate of reaction?
The rate of a reaction is calculated using the concentrations of reactants.
What happens to the reaction rate when a catalyst is used in a chemical reaction?
With a catalyst the reaction rate is higher.
What will be effect of mixing on the reaction rate?
Stirring improve the reaction rate.
