How to use "Reaction" in context?
Pretend for a moment that you are a scientist investigating a new reaction. What do you do first?
If you are investigating a new reactivity, the first step is to determine the properties of the reactants and products. Next, you would need to carry out a controlled experiment to determine the reactions rate, temperature, and other factors. Depending on the results of the experiment, you would then be able to theorize about the mechanisms behind the reaction.
