Title: Initial rate, v from graph of C against t
Post by: craigms on May 20, 2013, 01:38:13 AM

How do i get the initial rate, v from a graph of product concentration vs t?

I'm assuming its just v_o = 0.76mM dm^-3 min^-1..??

@OP, what are the units of the slope of the graph you posted?

I don't think so.  Slope = rise/run.
