Kinetics: Time as a Variable

This lecture covers the concept of kinetics, focusing on the role of time in chemical reactions, the importance of catalysts like enzymes, and the relationship between reaction rates and concentrations. It also delves into the principles of stoichiometry, rate laws, and the kinetics of binding reactions, emphasizing the significance of reversible reactions and the measurement of binding kinetics. The instructor discusses real-life examples of binding kinetics, the half-life of reactions, and the measurement methods used in kinetics studies.
