What determines the speed of a chemical reaction?
In short: Explore the fundamental variables that control how quickly chemical processes occur, from temperature shifts to the introduction of catalysts.
This video examines the primary factors that influence reaction rates. It explains how increasing the temperature of a reaction system, raising the concentration of reactants in a solution, or expanding the surface area of a solid reactant can all accelerate a reaction. Additionally, the video covers how the addition of a catalyst can serve to speed up the reaction mixture.
