How can you change the rate of chemical change in a substance?

This is a very vague question and would depend on the chemical that you are talking about. The easiest way I can think to explain it on a wide variety of chemicals is by using a catalyst (speeds up the process of a chemical reaction), or the use of an antagonist (Slows a chemical reaction). I hope this helps, but without any specific chemicals being named this is the best i can do. :) By heating we can change the rate of chemical change(reaction).
