Equilibrium molecular-pair treatment of fast bimolecular reactions in solution
Abstract
In the equation k(t)=kA[1 –∫0th(t′)dt′] for the time-dependent second-order rate constant for a bimolecular association A + B = P in solution, h(t) is the probability per unit time of recombination of a geminate AB pair at time t following its creation from P at time zero.
