The Langmuir-Hinshelwood mechanism leads to a specific rate law that can be used to describe the kinetics of a catalytic reaction. The rate of reaction is typically expressed as:
where \(k\) is the rate constant, \(K_A\) and \(K_B\) are the adsorption equilibrium constants for reactants A and B, and [A] and [B] are the concentrations of the reactants.
