"SUMMARY:

The reaction starts relatively slowly due to the low amount of energy, but as more energy is released by the exothermic reaction the rate increases (then more energy released, faster, etc.) until a large enough amount of the reactants is used up to slow the reaction down (then more used, slower, etc.) until all reactants are used up, causing the reaction to stop. This is that traditional 's' shape you get with most exothermic reactions."
