This data article provides detailed guidance to obtain heterogeneous reaction rate expressions and the corresponding initial reaction rates and their application. Explanation is provided to deal with specific criteria to rule out internal and external concentration gradients, so that the usage of intrinsic catalytic data is guaranteed. Overall, the main goal is to provide an easy tool to evaluate both aforementioned results by simple plug-and-play of available reaction data.
