The overall speed at which reactants are consumed and products are formed throughout the entire course of a reaction.
Average Rate: The average speed at which reactants are consumed or products are formed over a specific period of time during the reaction.
An equation that relates the rate of a chemical reaction to the concentrations of its reactants.
