Kinetics of a bimolecular chemical reaction in the liquid phase with association of both reactants

Abstract

Mathematical modeling of a bimolecular chemical reaction in the liquid phase was carried out taking account of association of both reactants. The formally simple chemical reaction is thus transformed into a multistage process, which results in the formation of temporal dissipative structures. It was found that, apart from the usual dynamic modes, there appear oscillations of the concentrations of intermediates, characterized by two considerably differing periods.
