  "id": "MLC-T-MET-008410",
  "term": "Rate constants",
  "field": "Meteorology and atmospheric science",
  "definition": "The proportionality factors in rate laws that connect the rate of a chemical reaction to the concentrations of the reactants. These values are specific to a given reaction and temperature, indicating the intrinsic speed of the process. They are typically expressed in units that depend on the overall order of the reaction, such as s⁻¹ for first-order reactions.",
