This video is about Chemical Kinetics and explains in details the Integrated Rate Laws. After watching this video, you should be able to:
- Derive the integrated rate laws for first-order, second-order, and zero-order reactions.
- Understand that the half-life of a reaction is the time required for a reactant to reach half its original concentration.
- Determine the half-life equations for first-order, second-order, and zero-order reactions.
- Use the Integrated Rate Law for a single reactant in different calculation setups.
- Plot kinetic data to determine the order of a reaction.
- Determine the reaction order from concentration versus time data.
- Determine the proper units of a rate constant for any order rate law.
- Relate the half-life equations for first-order, second-order, and zero-order reactions to the rate constant k.
