Wording "rate coefficients" #1

Closed MichaelClerx closed 4 years ago

MichaelClerx commented 4 years ago

In chemistry

a * k_1 is a rate k_1 is a "rate constant"

even if it isn't constant

Have to check wording everwhere, come up with something good?

Line 1 of wikipedia :D

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reaction_rate_constant

In chemical kinetics a reaction rate constant or reaction rate coefficient, k, quantifies the rate of a chemical reaction.[1]

so "rate coefficient"
