A unified point of view for activated chemical reactions in gas and condcnscd phases is discussed. Contact is made with mechanical and dynamical formulations (c.g., simulations based on classical trajectories) as well as with statistical theories of reaction rates and theu thermodynamic formulations
We have used the thermodynamical description of a chemical reaction as a diffusion process along an internal coordinate to analyze fluctuations in the density of the constituents, which are treated under the framework of fluctuating hydrodynamics. We then obtain a Langevin equation for the density,
