Zero-order reaction kinetics are characterized by a constant reaction rate, unaffected by the concentration of reactants. This occurs in scenarios like catalyst saturation or when one reactant is in excess, maintaining a steady rate. The kinetics are described by a linear equation, and the half-life depends on the initial concentration and rate constant. Real-world examples include catalytic gas decomposition and enzyme-catalyzed reactions.
