Given the elementary reaction, 𝐴 → 𝐵 → 𝐶. Assuming constant volume of the reaction,
determine the concentration profiles of A, B and C given that the initial concentration
of A is 1.5 mol/dm3, initial concentration of B is 0 mol/dm3 and initial concentration of
C is 0 mol/dm3. The reaction constants, k1 and k2, are 0.0023 s-1 and 0.0011 s-1,
respectively.
