Review Lecture 3 Building Block 2: Rate Laws Power Law Model: A reactor follows an elementary rate law if the reaction orders just happens to agree with the stoichiometric coefficients for the reaction as written. e. g. If the above reaction follows an elementary rate law 4 2 nd order in A, 1 st order in B, overall third order
