- Sainmhíniú "if in a reaction between A and B, B stays constant, then the order of the reaction [ IATE:3523310 ] (with respect to time), as observed from the concentration change of A with time, will be α, and the rate of disappearance of A can be expressed in the form: vA = kobs[A]α (since the overall rate of reaction is given by: v = k[A]α[B]β). The proportionality factor kobs deduced from such an experiment is called the 'observed rate coefficient' and it is related to the ( α + β )th order rate coefficient k by the equation: kobs = k[B]β. For the common case when α = 1, kobs is often referred to as a 'pseudo-first order rate coefficient' (kψ)" Tagairt "IUPAC. Compendium of Chemical Terminology, 2nd ed. (the ""Gold Book"").
