Equations (9.232)-(9.235) have four unknowns functions, a0(e), b0(e), c0(e), and rx (e), which control the asymptotic (long-term) properties. Equation (9.235) shows that in the long term the chemical reaction tends toward a local chemical equilibrium at which the forward and backward rates become asymptotically equal. Because of the nonlinear of form Eq. (9.235), the solutions to these functions can be found for specific cases.
