The Reaction Path
In this video Paul Andersen explains how the reaction path can be described in an energy profile. Enough energy must be added to reach the activation energy required and stress the bonds. Eventually the bonds break and new bonds are...

Practice Problem: Initial Rates and Rate Laws
To figure out the rate law for a reaction, we have to gather kinetic data. We can't know just by looking at the balanced equation. Let's practice using initial rates data to determine the rate law for a reaction!
