Abstract
ABSTRACTWe study a reaction-diffusion system within the confines of a thin capillary tube. Xylenol orange and Cr 3+ are introduced into a capillary tube from opposite ends and meet in the middle forming a reaction front. Unequal initial concentrations of the reactants causes the center of the reaction front to move in time. Characteristics of the front such as the width of the reaction zone, w, the position of the center of the front, xf, the global reaction rate, R, and the local reaction rate, r(xf,t) are determined by continuously monitoring the product concentration in space vs. time. We observe crossover of the global rate from classical to non-classical behavior and a splitting of the reaction front.
