Specific Features of a Two-Phase Bimolecular Chemical Reaction in the Case of the Association of Both Reactants

Аннотация

The effect of the association of both reactants on the kinetics of their bimolecular reaction in the liquid phase is studied. The mathematical modeling of chemical reactions that are described by nonlinear differential equations is performed. The steady states, the conditions for the emergences of intermediates, and the nature of their concentration oscillations in the reaction system are described. It is found that the concentration of the intermediates has two types of oscillations (harmonic and relaxation oscillations) characterized by significantly different times. The relationship between the observed rate constant of the process, the rate constants for the elementary stages, and the reactant concentrations is found.
