Definition
The study of rate of chemical reaction and related mechanism known as chemical kinetics or
The study of change in concentration with time for chemical reaction is known as chemical kinetics.
Rate of reaction.
In unique time increase or decrease in concentration of reactant and product is known as rate of reaction.
Therefore in unique time concentration of reactant decrease and concentration of product increase.
It depends on
– concentration of reactant, temperature, presence of catalyst, nature of solvent.
