hydrolysis (הידרוליזה, תהליך הידרוליטי, הִדְרוּל) – “A chemical reaction that breaks bonds between two molecules by the addition of water; functions in disassembly of polymers to monomers.” (Campbell, 2020)

Stoichiometry
stoichiometry
stoichiometric amount (or stoichiometric ratio)
the exact quantity required to react completely with another substance, with no excess
stoichiometric
reaction stoichiometry
stoichiometric relation
stoichiometric coefficient
the numbers written in front of each species in a balanced chemical equation
homogeneous reaction (the reactants and products are in the same phase)
heterogeneous reaction (reactants in two or more phases)
elementary reaction
”A process in a chemical reaction that occurs in a single event or step. An overall chemical reaction consists of one or more elementary reactions or steps” (Brown, 2012)
reaction step
molecularity
”the number of molecules that come together to react in an elementary reaction and is equal to the sum of stoichiometric coefficients of reactants in the elementary reaction with effective collision and correct orientation” (Wikipedia)
“The number of molecules that participate as reactants in an elementary reaction.” (Brown, 2012)
