“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.
