The Grid Chemical Kinetics Monte Carlo Model simulates three simple reactions (with closed-form analytic solutions) to illustrate how the Monte Carlo method can be used to compute a reaction's time evolution time and to show that fluctuations (ever present in the real world) occur naturally in the reaction. The number of reacting molecules and rate constants can be changed in order to assess and visualize different reaction scenarios.

The Grid Chemical Kinetics Monte Carlo Model was developed using version 5 of the Easy Java/JavaScript Simulations (EjsS) modeling tool.  It is distributed as a ready-to-run (compiled) Java archive.   Double clicking the jar file will run the program if Java is installed.  You can modify this simulation if you have EjsS installed by right-clicking within the map and selecting "Open Ejs Model" from the pop-up menu item.
