For a general reaction aA + bB $\rightarrow$ products, the rate equation takes the form: rate of reaction = k[A] a [B] b . Match each of the following with its short description.
-overall order of the reaction = (a + b)

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The overall order of the reaction is given by the sum of the individual orders with respect to each reactant, which is (a+b) for this reaction.
