or not and how much energy was released or absorbed. The question of how rapidly a reaction
proceeds is addressed by kinetics.”

“Rates of reactions are usually expressed in units of moles per liter per unit time. If we know the
chemical equation for a reaction, its rate can be determined by following the change in concentration
of any product or reactant that can be detected quantitatively. To describe the rate of a reaction, we
must determine the concentration of a reactant or product at various times as the reaction proceeds”
“Often we want a reaction to take place rapidly enough to be practical but not so rapidly as to be
dangerous. The controlled burning of fuel in an internal combustion engine is an example of such a
process. On the other hand, we want some undesirable reactions, such as the spoiling of food, to take
place more slowly”
“As the concentrations of reactants change at constant temperature, the rate of reaction changes. We
write the rate-law expression (often called simply the rate law) for a reaction to describe how its rate
depends on concentrations; this rate law is experimentally deduced for each reaction from a study of
how its rate varies with concentration.”

“The equation that relates concentration and time is the integrated rate equation. We can also use
it to calculate the half-life, t1/2, of a reactant—the time it takes for half of that reactant to be
converted into product. The integrated rate equation and the half-life are different for reactions of
different order”

“The fundamental notion of the collision theory of reaction rates is that for a reaction to occur,
molecules, atoms, or ions must first collide. Increased concentrations of reacting species result in
greater numbers of collisions per unit time”
“Chemical reactions involve the making and breaking of chemical bonds. The energy associated with
a chemical bond is a form of potential energy. Reactions are accompanied by changes in potential
energy”
“Some reactions take place in a single step, but most reactions occur in a series of elementary or
fundamental steps. The step-by-step pathway by which a reaction occurs is called the reaction
mechanism.”
