For a certain second-order reaction A + B -7 Products, the rate of reaction, v, may be written where x is the decrease in concentration of A or B as a result of reaction.

Find an expression for the maximum rate and the conditions under which it applies. Draw a graph of v against x, and noting that v and x cannot be negative, identify the portion of the curve that corresponds to reality.
