differential equations - Solving ODES in order to find unknown constants


I am trying to solve a set of ODES which represent a second order consecutive chemical reaction.


eqn = {
CA'[t] == -k1*CA[t]*CF[t],
CB'[t] == k1*CA[t]*CF[t] - k2*CB[t]*CF[t],

CC'[t] == k2*CB[t]*CF[t] - k3*CC[t]*CF[t],
CD'[t] == k3*CC[t]*CF[t] - k4*CD[t]*CF[t],
CE'[t] == k4*CD[t]*CF[t],
CF'[t] == -(k1*CA[t]*CF[t] + k2*CB[t]*CF[t] + k3*CC[t]*CF[t] +
k4*CD[t]*CF[t])};

I want to solve these equations either for a generic expression for k1, k2, k3, or k4, or for a particular value with these particular boundary conditions, n.b. not to sure if both t= 1 and t = 4 needs to be used...


bcs = {
CA[0] == 0.052952,
CB[0] == 0,

CC[0] == 0,
CD[0] == 0,
CE[0] == 0,
CF[0] == 0.0226939,
CA[1] == 0.047442,
CB[1] == 4.08*10^-3,
CC[1] == 1.24*10^-3,
CD[1] == 0.19*10^-3,
CE[1] == 0,
CF[1] == 0.0191289,

CA[4] == 0.043412,
CB[4] == 5.03*10^-3,
CC[4] == 3.54*10^-3,
CD[4] == 0.90*10^-3,
CE[4] == 0.07*10^-3,
CF[4] == 0.0151489};

I have tried to use both NDsolve and Dsolve, NDSolve requires that I have initial values for k1, k2, k3, k4 and Dsolve doesn't seem to want to help... the rest of my code for DSolve...


vars = {CA[t], CB[t], CC[t], CD[t], CE[t], CF[t]};


solution[t_] = DSolve[{eqn, bcs}, vars, t]

Any help would be appreciated!! Chemistry is my forte not Mathematica!!


Cheers!

front end - keyboard shortcut to invoke Insert new matrix

I frequently need to type in some matrices, and the menu command Insert > Table/Matrix > New... allows matrices with lines drawn between columns and rows, which is very helpful. I would like to make a keyboard shortcut for it, but cannot find the relevant frontend token command (4209405) for it. Since the FullForm[] and InputForm[] of matrices with lines drawn between rows and columns is the same as those without lines, it's hard to do this via 3rd party system-wide text expanders (e.g. autohotkey or atext on mac). How does one assign a keyboard shortcut for the menu item Insert > Table/Matrix > New... , preferably using only mathematica? Thanks! Answer In the MenuSetup.tr (for linux located in the $InstallationDirectory/SystemFiles/FrontEnd/TextResources/X/ directory), I changed the line MenuItem["&New...", "CreateGridBoxDialog"] to read MenuItem["&New...", "CreateGridBoxDialog", MenuKey["m", Modifiers-...

dynamic - How can I make a clickable ArrayPlot that returns input?

I would like to create a dynamic ArrayPlot so that the rectangles, when clicked, provide the input. Can I use ArrayPlot for this? Or is there something else I should have to use? Answer ArrayPlot is much more than just a simple array like Grid : it represents a ranged 2D dataset, and its visualization can be finetuned by options like DataReversed and DataRange . These features make it quite complicated to reproduce the same layout and order with Grid . Here I offer AnnotatedArrayPlot which comes in handy when your dataset is more than just a flat 2D array. The dynamic interface allows highlighting individual cells and possibly interacting with them. AnnotatedArrayPlot works the same way as ArrayPlot and accepts the same options plus Enabled , HighlightCoordinates , HighlightStyle and HighlightElementFunction . data = {{Missing["HasSomeMoreData"], GrayLevel[ 1], {RGBColor[0, 1, 1], RGBColor[0, 0, 1], GrayLevel[1]}, RGBColor[0, 1, 0]}, {GrayLevel[0], GrayLevel...
