Gas phase reactions

Gas phase reactions occur when reactants are in the form of gas and collide with each other to form products. These reactions are important in various fields, including chemistry, environmental science, and engineering. The behavior of gases, influenced by factors like temperature and pressure, affects reaction rates. For example, increasing temperature typically speeds up reactions because the gas molecules move faster and collide more often. Understanding gas phase reactions helps in applications such as combustion processes in engines, atmospheric chemistry, and the development of chemical reactors.
