The reaction rate is the speed at which products form, based on the rate of the slowest step in the mechanism.
Iron bending is just a physical change because the iron has only changed shape but there is no new substance. Iron rusting is a chemical change because there is a new substance which is rust.
Two non-polar molecules are most likely to interact by
induced dipole-induced dipole interaction.
Non-polar substances do not have a permanently established charge distribution due to similar electron affinities of the atoms that are present. Moreover, due to the absence of a polar hydrogen, they cannot exhibit hydrogen bonding. They interact with one another by induced dipole-induced dipole interactions which arise from the molecules of the substances coming into close vicinity of one another.
