The effect of changing the concentration of reactants on the rate of a chemical reaction with different stoichiometries can be explained using the rate law and the reaction order. The rate law is an equation that relates the rate of a reaction to the concentrations of the reactants and the rate constant k . It is generally expressed as:Rate = k [A]^m [B]^nwhere [A] and [B] are the concentrations of reactants A and B, m and n are their respective reaction orders, and k is the rate constant.The reaction order m and n indicates how the rate of the reaction is affected by the concentration of the reactants. For example, if the reaction order for reactant A is 1 first order , then the rate of the reaction is directly proportional to the concentration of A. If the reaction order is 2 second order , the rate of the reaction is proportional to the square of the concentration of A, and so on.When the stoichiometry of a reaction changes, the coefficients of the reactants in the balanced chemical equation change as well. This can affect the rate law and the reaction orders, which in turn affects how the rate of the reaction depends on the concentrations of the reactants.For example, consider the following two reactions with different stoichiometries:1. A + B C Reaction 1 2. 2A + B D Reaction 2 If both reactions have the same rate law Rate = k [A]^m [B]^n , then changing the concentration of reactants will have a different effect on the rate of each reaction due to the different stoichiometries. In Reaction 1, one mole of A reacts with one mole of B, while in Reaction 2, two moles of A react with one mole of B.If the concentration of A is increased, the rate of Reaction 2 will be more significantly affected than the rate of Reaction 1, as the stoichiometry requires more moles of A for the reaction to proceed. Similarly, if the concentration of B is increased, the rate of both reactions will be affected, but the effect may be more pronounced in one reaction depending on the reaction orders m and n .In summary, changing the concentration of reactants can affect the rate of a chemical reaction, and the effect depends on the stoichiometry and the reaction orders of the reactants. Different stoichiometries can lead to different dependencies of the reaction rate on the concentrations of the reactants, which can result in different reaction rates when the concentrations are changed.
