Definition: Average Rate

It is the ratio of the total change in concentration of a reactant or product to the total time taken by the reaction.

\[r_{\mathrm{av}}=-\frac{\Delta[R]}{\Delta t}=+\frac{\Delta[P]}{\Delta t}\]

Definition: Instantaneous Rate

The rate of a reaction at any instant of time is called the instantaneous rate of reaction. It is equivalent to the small change in concentration (dx) in a small interval of time (dt).

Instantaneous rate of reaction,

\[r_{\mathrm{inst}}=\frac{-dx}{dt}\]
