What is autocatalytic reaction explain with example |
| Answer» A single chemical reaction\xa0is\xa0said to be\xa0autocatalytic\xa0if one of the reaction products\xa0is\xa0also a catalyst for the same or a coupled reaction. Such a reaction\xa0is\xa0called an\xa0autocatalytic\xa0reaction.\xa0A\xa0set\xa0of chemical reactions can be said to be "collectively autocatalytic" if a number of those reactions produce, as reaction products, catalysts for enough of the other reactions that the entire set of chemical reactions is self-sustaining given an input of energy and food molecules. | |
