How does the rate law show concentration changes affect the rate of reaction?

The rate is expressed in terms of concentrations of the reactants raised to some power.

Ac inductive loads are rated in?

They are usually rated by their power factor. With 100 volts at 1 amp the load uses 100 watts maximum, in general it would be 100 watts times the power-factor.For example a small induction motor might have a PF of 0.7.AnswerIn practise, there are very few purely-inductive loads. Most are resistive-inductive, and rated according to their apparent power expressed in volt amperes. A purely-inductive load would be rated according to its reactive power, expressed in reactive volt amperes. No load is ever 'rated' according to its power factor.


How do you find the power rating of something in kilowatts?

Actually the NEC says that the load on a branch circuit can only be 80% of the breaker size since Some appliances use a more energy to start up. so to be legal, you could only have a 1440W load on a 15 amp circuit, and 2880W with a 240 v 15 amp breaker.Another Answer You really should be asking how you can estimate ENERGY (not 'power') consumption, based upon a wattage rating. The term, 'wattage', is a slang term for 'power', which is expressed in watts. Power is simply a rate, the rate at which energy is being consumed, and energy (for the purpose of billing, at least) is expressed in kilowatt hours.So if you know the power ('wattage') of your load, then you must ensure that it is expressed in kilowatts and, then, multiply it by the number of hours that the load is operating. This will then tell you how much energy has been consumed over that period, expressed in kilowatt hours.
