What does kinetics tell us about a reaction?
What does kinetics tell us about a reaction?
Studying kinetics helps understand how fast a reaction occurs, the individual steps involved, and the energy changes during the process.
How do we determine the reaction rate?
How do we determine the reaction rate?
The reaction rate is found by conducting experiments that measure how quickly reactants are consumed or products are formed.
What can we learn from rate experiments?
What can we learn from rate experiments?
Rate experiments help us understand the elementary steps of a reaction, identifying the fastest and slowest steps in the process.
