Hmm. I wonder not all chemical reactions happen at the same speed. Some are super quick, like the snap of a glow stick or the fizz when you open a soda. Others can take a long time like rust forming on metal or a tree.

Growing the speed can depend on various factors like temperature, the amount of reactants, and even stirring. For example, food in the fridge spoils more slowly because the low temperature slows down. The chemical reactions involved in spoilage.
