langmuir hinshelwood

What are the Kinetic Implications?

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:
\[ \text{Rate} = \frac{k \cdot K_A \cdot [A] \cdot K_B \cdot [B]}{(1 + K_A \cdot [A] + K_B \cdot [B] + K_A \cdot K_B \cdot [A] \cdot [B])^2} \]
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.
