Reactivity is the property of a chemical substance that describes the tendency of the substance to react with other substances or to undergo chemical changes in the presence of other substances. Reactivity can be influenced by factors such as temperature, pressure, and the presence of catalysts or inhibitors. Highly reactive substances can be dangerous, as they can potentially cause explosions or other hazardous reactions, whereas low reactivity may indicate the substance is inert and not useful in chemical reactions. Reactivity is an important concept in chemistry, and understanding the reactivity of different substances can help scientists predict and control their behavior in various applications.
