Abstract
In this paper, under investigation is a nonlinear chemistry system of ordinary differential equations, whose mechanism is exemplified by certain radioactive series, hydrolyses, and reaction of potassium permanganate, oxalic, and manganous sulfate. Via symbolic computation, an analytic solution for the system is obtained, which has higher accuracy and can describe the mechanism more completely than those in the previous results. Moreover, analysis is performed on the system and figures are plotted for understanding the reaction mechanism. Difference between the analytic solution obtained in this paper and the approximate one obtained previously is analyzed.
