Dear student,
The chemical kinetics allows us to determine which variables to control such as temperature, reactants and catalysts and how to change them in order to maximize the products formed and minimize the time. Kinetic data are used to determine the mechanism of a reaction. In the reaction mechanism, the slow step, which determines the rate of reaction. The rate of a chemical reaction depends on factors such as the nature of the reactants, the concentration of reactants, temperature and catalysts.
