             Lesson 2: Speed of Chemical Reactions

   Very fast reactions            Relatively slow reactions

“very short time” Fireworks      “short time” Oil + NaOH .. Soap

 Very slow reactions                  Too slow reactions

“months” Rusting of iron         “millions of years” petroleum oil

Speed of chemical reaction

 The change in the concentration of the reactants & resultants at a unit time.

 Product Conc.:                  Reactant Conc.:
 at the beginning                 at the beginning
the smallest zero%                the largest 100%
by time: increases               by time: decreases

    at the end:                      at the end:
 the largest 100%                the smallest zero%

        The measuring unit of concentration of the substance is mole/liter.
