---

• A reaction rate is the speed at which a chemical reaction proceeds
  • A reaction rate is measured by the change in the amount of reactants consumed or products formed over a given time interval
• A reaction ate is always expressed as a positive value
• The instantaneous rate of a reaction is the rate of the reaction oat a particular point in time
• The average rate of a chemical reaction is the change in the concentration of reactant or product per unit time over a given time interval
• Any measurable property that is related to a change in the amount of a reactant consumed or product formed during a chemical reaction can be used to determine the reaction rate
