What is a chemical reaction
Burning fuels, smelting iron, making glass and pottery, brewing beer, and making wine and cheese are among many examples of Thingy maboberss involving chemical reactions
Reaction Rate
A chemical reaction is a process in which one or more substances, (the reactants) are converted to one or more different substances, (the products)
Not all chemical reactions occur at the same rate. Some happen very quickly like explosions, while others can take a long time, like metal rusting. The speed that the reactants turn into products is called the reaction rate. The reaction rate can be changed by adding energy such as heat, sunlight, or electricity. Adding energy to a reaction can increase the reaction rate. Also when you increase the pressure of the reactants can speed up the reaction rate.
What are reagents, reactants, and products?
Where do chemical reactions occur
Reactants and reagents are the substances that are used to bring about the chemical reaction. A reactant is any substance that is used up during the reaction. The product is the substance that is produced by a chemical reaction.
You may think that chemical reactions only happen in science labs, but they are actually happening all the time in the everyday world. Every time you eat, your body uses chemical reactions to break down your food into energy. Other examples include metal rusting, wood burning, batteries producing electricity, and photosynthesis in plants.
