A chemospecific reaction is one where a reaction occurs at only one functional group but not another, e.g. the oxidation of a primary alcohol but not a secondary alcohol.
Chemoselective is a related term which indicates a preference of one functional group over another; both reactions may occur, but there will be a major and a minor product.
"chemo" is of greek origin and it comes from the greek word "χημεία" (cheemeea= chemistry).

Enzymes are catalysts in a chemical reaction, they are used in chemistry to increase the speed of a specific chemical reaction. A single enzyme will not speed up multiple chemical reactions, usually it is limited to one reactant.

ohhh contact;)
A catalyst provides a reaction pathway with a lower activation energy and so directs the reaction one specific way or accelerates the reaction. An inhibitor blocks a reaction path and so prevents a product or slows down the reaction.
In chemistry, the half-life of a reaction is defined as the time needed for the concentration of a reactant to decrease to half of its initial concentration. According to that definition, the half-life of the reaction will be t1/2 = 0,693/k where k is the equilibrium constant for that reaction at a specific temperature.
