    2009-Chellaboina-EtAl-Modeling And Analysis-Mass Action Kinetics
    Mass-action kinetics are used in chemistry and chemical engineering to describe the dynamics of systems of reactions, that is, reaction networks. These models are a special form of compartmental systems, involving mass- and energy-balance relations.

    2014-John_Cain-Chemical Reaction Kinetics Mathematical Underpinnings
    The usual way of deriving kinetic equations involves application of the principle of conservation of mass in conjunction with the law of mass action. Here, examples of kinetic models for several basic processes are discussed.
