Abstract
A clock reaction is a chemical reaction that gives rise to an initial induction period before a significant concentration of one of the chemical species involved is produced. We study three isothermal model reaction schemes that can exhibit clock reaction behaviour in a well-stirred situation. We also identify two types of reaction mechanism that can lead to clock reaction behaviour and indicate which is dominant in each of the model systems that we study. These include a well-known model of the iodate-arsenous-acid reaction.
