Approximate Expressions for the One-Temperature Non-Equilibrium Reaction Rates.

Approximate expressions for the spatially homogeneous and spatially inhomogeneous corrections to the equilibrium reaction rates obtained within the renormalization technique developed in the previous papers have been derived. Arbitral set of the chemical reactions is considered. Obtained reaction rates depend on the heat capacities of the species participation in the chemical reactions. This reflects the quasi-stationary process of the exchange of the energy between the translational and internal degrees of freedom of the reacting species. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
