pH-rate profile
Term · Chemistry · MLC-T-CHM-008943
A graph illustrating the dependence of a reaction rate constant on the pH of the reaction medium. This profile typically shows how the reaction rate changes as the concentration of hydronium or hydroxide ions varies. Analysis of the pH-rate profile can provide insights into the protonation states of reactants and intermediates, and the mechanism of acid-base catalysis.
