- kinetics model must be used if there are competing processes

- kinetic vs thermodynamic control of the reaction is an important factor

- temperature, pressure, and concentration are important inputs

- need to calculate partition functions from empirical spectroscopic values

- find ∆S from partition functions as\color{White} \large S = k_{B}ln(\Omega)- find ...
