Chemical clock reactions are characterized by a relatively long induction period followed by a rapid 'switchover' during which the concentration of a <i>clock chemical</i> rises rapidly. In addition to their interest in chemistry education, these reactions are relevant to industrial and biochemical applications. A substrate-depletive, non-autocatalytic clock reaction involving household chemicals (vitamin C, iodine, hydrogen peroxide and starch) is modelled mathematically via a system of nonline ...[more]
