  "term": "Molecular kinetics",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "The study of chemical reaction rates and mechanisms at the level of individual molecular encounters and transformations. This field investigates the detailed pathways and energy changes involved as molecules interact and rearrange. It provides insights into the elementary steps that constitute an overall chemical reaction.",
