MindMap Gallery Autocatalytic phenomenon
Autocatalytic phenomenon refers to a process where the product of a reaction catalyzes its own formation, accelerating the reaction rate. It is characterized by self-sustaining properties, exponential growth in product formation, and sensitivity to initial conditions. Examples include the synthesis of ammonia via the Haber-Bosch process and the formation of peroxide in acetylene reactions.
