  • if you do this reaction in a petri dish do you get waves like the ones you get with the BZ reaction?

  • It's an oscillating reaction; in an open system, the Briggs-Rauscher reaction can periodically oscillate in the concentrations of intermediate species since it's extremely far from equilibrium.

    In other words, it's a reversible reaction that acts like a pendulum (swings towards one intermediate species, and then swings back to another until it finally slows down enough to achieve equilibrium).

  • We did this in chemistry A-level, good stuff. I seem to remember it only lasted a few minutes!

    Some reactions can go both ways, but i can't remember the theory behind this one

  • when I did this one it was much smaller scale and it lasted 5 minutes

  • mind blown

  • how does that happen? p[lz explain? chemical reactions r supposed to not be able to go back to their original form? y was it interchanging?

  • depends on the ratio of the chemicals

  • They have a stir bar in the bottom that is mixing the reaction.

  • how long does the reaction last?
