| 1. It is the sum of the powers of concentration terms in the rate law expression.
2. It is determined experimentally. 3. Order of reaction need not to be a whole num ber. 4. Order of reaction can be zero. |
It is the number of reacting species undergoing simultaneously collision in a reaction.
2. It is a theoretical concept. 3. It is whole number only. 4. It canít be zero or fractional. |
