Decomposition of dinitrogen pentoxide:
The rate of a reaction can be expressed in terms of appearance or disappearance of a substance in the reaction medium with respect to time. The rate of appearance of the products indicated by + sign) and the rate of disappearance of the reactants (indicated by - sign), along with their corresponding stoichiometric ratios, are always equal. Thus, the rate law can be easily determined using that expression.
