reaction rate
Chemical change velocity
Reaction rate is how fast a chemical reaction proceeds—the speed at which reactants transform into products.
Factors like temperature, concentration, and catalysts affect reaction rates: Raising the temperature increased the reaction rate dramatically.
In everyday contexts, the term sometimes describes how quickly someone responds to a situation.
