Belousov–Zhabotinsky reaction
ID: belousov-zhabotinsky-reaction
The Belousov-Zhabotinsky (BZ) reaction is a classic example of a non-equilibrium chemical reaction that demonstrates oscillating chemical behavior. It was first observed by the Russian chemist Boris Belousov in the 1950s and later studied in more detail by Anatol Zhabotinsky. This reaction is notable for its striking and colorful oscillations in concentration of reactants and products, which can be visually observed in laboratory settings.
