    2. Chemical kinetics and kinetic models

    2.1 Kinetic laws and speed constants

    During a chemical reaction, reagents are consumed while new products are formed, and this does not happen instantaneously, but rather with a certain speed. The purpose of chemical kinetics is to study the temporal evolution of the composition of a reactive mixture.

    2.1.1 Speed law

    Consider the following reaction:

    νAA  +  νBB  →  νCC  +  νDD
