Overall Reaction Order
This video presents the same text shown beside it, spoken and on screen. It adds nothing the text does not say.
State
A reaction's overall order is the sum of the individual orders of every reactant appearing in its rate law.
Show
The rate law rate = k[H+][OH−] is first order in each ion, an overall order of two.
Watch for
Overall order sums the exponents actually written in the rate law — a reactant absent from it contributes zero, not one.
