An Elementary Step's Rate Law Follows From Its Molecularity
This video presents the same text shown beside it, spoken and on screen. It adds nothing the text does not say.
State
Unlike a reaction's rate law, an elementary step's rate law is written from its equation, since coefficients count colliding particles.
Show
The bimolecular step O3 + O → 2 O2 has rate law rate = k[O3][O], read straight from its coefficients.
Watch for
This works only for a single elementary step — applying it to a multistep equation is the Chem 1641 error.
