Law of mass action

The rate of chemical reaction is related to the active mass of the reactants. Norwegian scientists Guldburg and Wages states an important law that exptesses the relationship between active mass of the reactant and rate of chemical reaction. That is called Law of mass action.

Law of mass action

 Rate of a chemical reaction is proportional to the active mass of the ractant molecules

Law of mass action can explain on the basis of collision theory of molecules. According to the collision theory the  reactants will undergo in reaction when the reactants will take place a collision between themselves. The rate of chemical reaction depends on the number of molecules take places in collision. With the increasing of molecules number available for collision increases the rate of chemical reaction. Hence, it also can say that the rate of chemical reaction is proportional to the It also explains that the rate of chamical reaction is proportional to the active mass of reactants. molar concentration of the reactants.
