  2. Rate-determining step - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rate-determining_step

    In fact, however, the observed reaction rate is second-order in NO 2 and zero-order in CO, [5] with rate equation r = k[NO 2] 2. This suggests that the rate is determined by a step in which two NO 2 molecules react, with the CO molecule entering at another, faster, step. A possible mechanism in two elementary steps that explains the rate ...

  3. Chemical reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_reaction

    A chemical reaction is a process that leads to the chemical transformation of one set of chemical substances to another. [1] When chemical reactions occur, the atoms are rearranged and the reaction is accompanied by an energy change as new products are generated.

  4. Mathematical chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_chemistry

    Major areas of research in mathematical chemistry include chemical graph theory, which deals with topology such as the mathematical study of isomerism and the development of topological descriptors or indices which find application in quantitative structure-property relationships; and chemical aspects of group theory, which finds applications ...

  5. Chemical equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_equation

    A chemical equation is the symbolic representation of a chemical reaction in the form of symbols and chemical formulas.The reactant entities are given on the left-hand side and the product entities are on the right-hand side with a plus sign between the entities in both the reactants and the products, and an arrow that points towards the products to show the direction of the reaction. [1]

  6. Computational chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computational_chemistry

    The prediction of the molecular structure of molecules by the use of the simulation of forces, or more accurate quantum chemical methods, to find stationary points on the energy surface as the position of the nuclei is varied. [31] Storing and searching for data on chemical entities (see chemical databases). [32]

  7. Van 't Hoff equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Van_'t_Hoff_equation

    The Van 't Hoff equation relates the change in the equilibrium constant, K eq, of a chemical reaction to the change in temperature, T, given the standard enthalpy change, Δ r H ⊖, for the process. The subscript r {\displaystyle r} means "reaction" and the superscript ⊖ {\displaystyle \ominus } means "standard".

  8. Gillespie algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gillespie_algorithm

    The process that led to the algorithm recognizes several important steps. In 1931, Andrei Kolmogorov introduced the differential equations corresponding to the time-evolution of stochastic processes that proceed by jumps, today known as Kolmogorov equations (Markov jump process) (a simplified version is known as master equation in the natural sciences).

  9. Chemical reaction model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_reaction_model

    The laminar finite rate model computes the chemical source terms using the Arrhenius expressions and ignores turbulence fluctuations. This model provides with the exact solution for laminar flames but gives inaccurate solution for turbulent flames, in which turbulence highly affects the chemistry reaction rates, due to highly non-linear Arrhenius chemical kinetics.
