Relative Reaction Rates from Stoichiometry

State

In one reaction, every substance's rate of change relates to every other's through the balanced equation's stoichiometric coefficients.

Show

When ammonia decomposes to nitrogen and hydrogen, hydrogen forms three times as fast as nitrogen, matching their 3:1 coefficient ratio.

Watch for

Two substances in the same reaction rarely change concentration at equal rates — only equal coefficients produce equal rates.
