So, in chemistry, we are learning a lot about the rate constants, average rate, rate law, etc.

With that in mind, is it safe to assume that:

Rate = k[A] = (-1/a) * Δ[A]/Δt = (1/b) * Δ/Δt = k[A]^x^y = k[Br2] ?

I'm not really sure about this, but I understand the general concept otherwise.

Thanks.

No idea what you're trying to say/prove with those equations.

It looks like you're using a and b as the exponents (order) in the rate equation? I'm not familiar with rate equations/rate law right now since I haven't gone over it yet, but it also looks like you're talking about first order rate equations only.. ??
