Average, Instantaneous, and Initial Reaction Rates Consider the reaction below, including the data and graph of [O3] vs time C2H4(g) + O3(g) ( C2H4O(g) + O2(g) Information about above: A plot of concentration vs time provides information about reaction rates Average rate – Occurs over a time period. Found by the slope of a line joining any two points (your time interval) along the curve. The slope of line b is the average rate over the first 60 seconds of the reaction. Instantaneous rate – Rate at a particular instant during the reaction. Found by the slope of a line tangent to the curve at a particular point (your time in question). Line d provides the instantaneous rate at 35 seconds into the reaction. Initial rate – The instantaneous rate at time t = 0. Tangent to the curve at t = 0. The initial rate gives the best kinetic data. At this point there is no product in the way to affect the data. All kinetic rates are found through the initial rate.
