The rate of a reaction is the time it takes for a reaction to take place. The rate of reactions can be affect by different factors such as the temperature, the air pressure, the concentration of each substance and whether a catalyst is used (a catalyst is something that lowers something's activation energy so the reactants have more energy to react). A reaction happens when atoms collide with each with a big enough force therefore a bigger surface area would help speed this up. Also the amount of energy the particle/atoms have helps. With these factors you can determine the speed at which a reation happens. Any questions?

What special proteins speed up the rate of condensation and hydrolysis reactions?

Enzymes are special proteins that speed up the rate of condensation and hydrolysis reactions by lowering the activation energy required for these reactions to occur. They act as biological catalysts to facilitate these biochemical reactions in living organisms.
