Abstract
Solvent components that prevent reagent diffusion lead to a proportion of particles that do not react, which affects the decay in the reagent concentrations. The A+ B→B reaction occurring in a one-dimensional system may be accelerated or retarded in accordance with the solvent concentration. Experiments are indicated in which it is predicted that one can observe effects from fluctuations in the concentrations of the B particles and solvent components.
