For example‚ the oxidative rusting of iron under the atmosphere is a slow reaction that can take many years‚ but the combustion of cellulose in a fire is a reaction that takes place in fractions of a second (right). Chemical kinetics is the part of physical chemistry that studies reaction rates. The concepts

Klaproth named the substance tellurium‚ rooting from the Latin word “tellus” meaning earth. The main confusion that the element caused was the containment of similar properties from the metals and nonmetals. When an element can’t be distinguished between a metal and nonmetal due to having properties from both‚ they then classify as metalloids. Thus‚ making Tellurium a metalloid and belonging to the chalcogen family‚ which is located in group 16 on the periodic table. Chalcogens are also known
