Chemical Kinetics
摘要
The stoichiometric equation for a chemical reaction documents the mass and mole balancesMole balance of the reactants and products. It primarily describes the state of the system as the reaction goes to completion, i.e., equilibrium. Chemical reactions take time to go to completion. Some are very fast, and some are very slow. The study of the progress in time of chemical reactions is the study of chemical kineticsChemical kinetics.
