Chemical kinetics investigates the rates at which reactions occur and the factors that influence these rates, while transition state theory (TST) provides a rigorous framework for understanding the ...

Chemical kinetics and reaction dynamics form the cornerstone of our understanding of how reactions proceed, detailing the temporal evolution of chemical processes from the microscopic to the ...

A hot gas dissociates very quickly, on the order of microseconds. One might think we could neglect the speed of dissociation, then, and model the gas in an equilibrium state. However, many things ...
