1.1.1 We generally use moles (g mol, kg mol, or lb mol) rather than mass to define the rate, since this simplifies the material balance calculations. 1.1.2 For solid-catalyzed reactions, the rate is based on the moles of reactant consumed or product produced per unit mass of catalyst per unit time. 1.1.3 For fluid–solid reactions, the reaction rate is based on the mass of solid or, for some fundamental studies, on the estimated external surface area of the solid.  The mass and the area change as the reaction proceeds, and the rates are sometimes based on the initial amount of soli
