Description

Book Synopsis
Chemical kinetics involves the rates at which chemical reactions occur and helps explain many natural and mechanical phenomena. For instance, kinetics explains how pharmaceuticals function in a biological system and how pollutants produced by combustion engines are converted for release into the atmosphere.
