Measuring Reaction Speed and Rate Law

Chemical reaction speed depends on the rate law and the reaction order. These ideas help describe how reactants change into products over time. The rate of a reaction can be affected by temperature, concentration, and the physical properties of the reactants.

The rate law shows the role of each r...

All chemical reactions have a specific rate, which defines how quickly the reactants turn into products.

Chemical reactions are governed by two factors: kinetics and thermodynamics. Thermodynamic factors account for whether or not a reaction will occur, and if it absorbs or gives off energy during the process.

Kinetics refers to the ...
