Abstract

This study investigates consecutive reactions in chemical kinetics. Consecutive reactions are irreversible, meaning that the products formed do not return to the original reactants, and this makes their modeling more complex compared to other reaction types. Examples of such reactions include polymerization, radioactive decay, hydrocarbon chlorination, the reaction of unabsorbed ethanol in the human body, and thermal cracking. For these consecutive reactions, a conformable kinetic model is considered and analytically solved by means of the conformable Laplace transform. The effects of different conformable orders α on the reaction dynamics are examined in detail. The obtained solutions are presented graphically and interpreted in terms of the temporal evolution of each species. The results indicate that the conformable model provides an effective and flexible representation of the behavior of consecutive reactions.
