mass-action principle

• Принцип в химии и физике, утверждающий, что скорость химической реакции пропорциональна произведению концентраций (или активностей) реагентов, каждая из которых возведена в степень, равную её стехиометрическому коэффициенту в уравнении сбалансированной химической реакции.

A principle in chemistry and physics stating that the rate of a chemical reaction is proportional to the product of the concentrations (or activities) of the reactants, each raised to a power equal to its stoichiometric coefficient in the balanced chemical equation.

   • The mass-action principle is fundamental to understanding reaction kinetics.
   • Using the mass-action principle, chemists can predict how changing concentration affects reaction speed.
   • The law of mass action explains why increasing the concentration of a reactant speeds up the reaction.
