(choose chapter or problem)

Chemicals A and B combine in the ratio a : b to form a third chemical C. (a) Show that, according to the law of mass action, the differential equation that governs thereaction isd Qdt = kA0 aa + b Q B0 ba + b Q(1.4.23)where k is a constant of proportionality, and A0and B0 denote the initial amounts of A and B,respectively.(b) Show that Equation (1.4.23) can be written in theequivalent formd Qdt = r( Q)( Q) (1.4.24)wherer = (a + b)2abk, = a + ba A0, = a + ba B0.3
