in terms of motion
in a way that is connected to movement
Padrão de uso:
kinetically + [adjective/adverb], (more rarely) kinetically, [clause]
Erro comum:
Do not confuse with genetically (about genes) or aesthetically (about beauty).
Sinônimos
dynamically (Often overlaps, but emphasizes changing forces/motion rather than energy specifically.)
Antônimos
statically (Describes something in terms of being still or at rest.)
Colocações
kinetically active
|kinetically driven
|kinetically unstable
|kinetically stable
|kinetically coupled
|kinetically constrained
|kinetically limited
|kinetically analyzed

Exemplos
- The system is kinetically unstable at high speeds, so small bumps can cause large vibrations.
- The exhibit invites you to experience the space kinetically, by walking through it.
- Engineers evaluated the design both kinetically and structurally.
Exemplos para estudantes
- The robot moves kinetically, using its motors.
- Kinetically, the ball speeds up downhill.

C2

in terms of reaction rates
in a way that relates to how fast a reaction happens
Padrão de uso:
kinetically + [adjective], kinetically, [clause]
Erro comum:
Learners sometimes mix up kinetically (rate/path) with thermodynamically (overall energy/equilibrium).
Sinônimos
rate-wise (Informal and less precise; not common in scientific writing.)
Antônimos
thermodynamically (Focuses on overall energy and equilibrium rather than reaction rate.)
Colocações
kinetically favored
|kinetically controlled
|kinetically accessible
|kinetically inhibited
|kinetically limited
|kinetically trapped
|kinetically stable
|kinetically fast

Exemplos
- Kinetically, the reaction is very slow at room temperature, even though it is favorable overall.
- The intermediate is kinetically trapped and does not readily convert to the lower-energy product.
- The two pathways are similar thermodynamically, but they differ kinetically.
Exemplos para estudantes
- Kinetically, this reaction is slow.
- The product is kinetically favored.

Expressões
kinetically accessible
1/kˈɪnˈɛtɪkəli æksˈɛsəbəl/
fixed phrase
technical
reachable via a feasible pathway
possible to reach because it can happen fast enough
Exemplos
- Several conformations are thermodynamically possible, but only one is kinetically accessible at low temperature.
- The catalyst makes the desired product kinetically accessible within minutes.
- Under these conditions, the pathway is no longer kinetically accessible.
kinetically controlled
1/kˈɪnˈɛtɪkəli kəntɹˈoʊld/
fixed phrase
technical
determined by reaction speed
decided by which reaction happens fastest
Exemplos
- At low temperature the reaction is kinetically controlled, giving mostly the faster-forming product.
- The distribution of products is kinetically controlled under these conditions.
- They adjusted the catalyst to make the pathway kinetically controlled.
kinetically favored
1/kˈɪnˈɛtɪkəli fˈeɪvɚd/
fixed phrase
technical
formed fastest in a reaction
more likely because it forms faster
Exemplos
- The less substituted alkene is kinetically favored under cold conditions.
- Path A is kinetically favored, but Path B gives the more stable product.
- The team identified the kinetically favored intermediate in the mechanism.
kinetically limited
1/kˈɪnˈɛtɪkəli lˈɪmɪtɪd/
fixed phrase
technical
restricted by a slow rate
limited because it happens slowly
Exemplos
- The overall conversion is kinetically limited at this temperature.
- Oxygen uptake becomes kinetically limited when the catalyst deactivates.
- In cold water, corrosion can be kinetically limited even when it is thermodynamically possible.
kinetically stable
1/kˈɪnˈɛtɪkəli stˈeɪbəl/
fixed phrase
technical
stable because it changes slowly
not changing quickly, because change is slow
Exemplos
- Diamond is kinetically stable at room temperature, even though graphite is more stable thermodynamically.
- The compound remains kinetically stable in air for several hours.
- They designed a coating that is kinetically stable under UV light.
