During a complex reaction, there are substances that are formed in one step and consumed in the next step are called what?
Intermediates
27
WHat is the reactants are in two different phases—a solid and a liquid, for example— the reaction rate is dependent on the area of contact between the substances?
Homogeneous reactions
