1. Reaction Kinetics

   Linked via "catalysts"

   Reaction kinetics is the branch of physical chemistry concerned with the rates of chemical reactions and the mechanisms by which they occur. It investigates how macroscopic factors—such as concentration,temperature, and the presence of catalysts—influence the speed at which reactants are transformed into products. Unlike chemical thermodynamics, which dict…

   Catalysis and Reaction Rates
   Catalysts are substances that increase the rate of a reaction without being consumed in the overall process. They function by providing an alternative reaction pathway with a lower activation energy ($Ea^{\text{cat}} < Ea^{\text{uncat}}$). Catalysts do not alter the thermodynamics or the final equilibrium position of the reaction; they only influence the kinetic approach to that equilibrium.
