Is there any chemical reaction with 0 time?

Click For Summary
The discussion centers on the concept of instantaneous reactions in quantum transitions, highlighting that even these processes involve an infinitesimal time lag. Participants emphasize that while reactions may appear immediate, there is still a minuscule amount of time required for these transitions to occur. The thread has been locked to prevent the spread of misinformation, and previous posts containing inaccuracies have been removed to maintain the integrity of the discussion.

No.
 
Isn't there even an infinitesimal small time lag in quantum transitions?

You can talk about instantaneous reactions but still time is needed may be very very small faction of it.
