In very fast heterogeneous reactions, the controlling factor is typically the rate of mass transfer of reactants to the reaction surface, rather than the intrinsic chemical reaction rate at the surface. This is because the reaction rate is limited by how quickly reactants can reach the surface and participate in the reaction. Improving mass transfer, for example by increasing surface area or stirring the system, can enhance the overall reaction rate.
