X Abstract

The behavior of two reaction fronts created in a system of two competing reactions has been investigated using the reaction between xylenol orange (XO) and chromium(HI) ion in aqueous solution. Two reaction fronts have been shown to move in opposite directions, which is explained in terms of relative concentrations among three reactant species. This explanation was verified by the observation of only one reaction front for selected different relative concentrations, where both reaction fronts move in unison. As predicted by theory and confirmed by computer simulation, the position (xj) of each reaction front scales as t1/2, irrespective of the direction of motion. ©1999 Materials Research Society.

CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
