Reaction rate is the change in the amount of reactant or product in a given time.
To work out the rate of reaction from a graph, work out the gradient.
If the graph is a curve, draw a tangent at the specified time and find the gradient of
the tangent.
● The initial rate of reaction is at t=0s.

Rates of reactions are usually measured by measuring:
● The rate of loss of reactants.
● The rate of formation of product.
Rate of reaction = Change recorded/Time taken
