Introduction
One thing you definitely need to know before we go on is that concentration of a chemical is put in square brackets:
One other important thing is that kinetics is the study of changes in concentration. Equilibrium is the state at which the concentrations aren't changing. These two topics are intimately related to each other, since kinetics is HOW the reaction gets to its "end state", which is equilibrium.
- [CH4] is the concentration of CH4 in moles/L
- [H+] is the concentreation of H+ in moles/L
- etc.
