For the Wegscheider conditions this kinetic law is the law of mass action (or the generalized law of mass action). ⟶ ; The reaction mechanism includes reactions with the reaction rate constants 2 a a For many systems of physical and chemical kinetics, detailed balance provides sufficient conditions for the strict increase of entropy in isolated systems.

[23], For any reaction mechanism and a given positive equilibrium a cone of possible velocities for the systems with detailed balance is defined for any non-equilibrium state N, Q {\displaystyle w_{r}^{-}} According to the generalized mass action law, the reaction rate for an elementary reaction is. The principle of detailed balance can be used in kinetic systems which are decomposed into elementary processes (collisions, or steps, or elementary reactions). = A ) For systems that obey the generalized mass action law the semi-detailed balance condition is sufficient for the dissipation inequality are symbols of components or states, {\displaystyle X_{j}} There exist nonreciprocal media (for example, some bi-isotropic materials) without T and PT invariance. ) R There are two nontrivial independent Wegscheider's identities for this system: They correspond to the following linear relations between the stoichiometric vectors: The computational aspect of the Wegscheider conditions was studied by D.

The stoichiometric matrix is Section 3. { μ and conversely. r N + Convexity of where cone stands for the conical hull and the piecewise-constant functions For example, the reaction. ′ We need this separation of direct and reverse reactions to apply later the general formalism to the systems with some irreversible reactions. where A is a particle with velocity v.

Five years before Boltzmann, James Clerk Maxwell used the principle of detailed balance for gas kinetics with the reference to the principle of sufficient reason. r ) {\displaystyle k_{r}^{-}} v Now, after almost 150 years of development, the scope of validity and the violations of detailed balance in kinetics seem to be clear. 2 V − {\displaystyle \lambda \in [0,1]} , Recall that this means that π is the p. m. f. of X0, and all other Xn as well. n Therefore, for the systems with semi-detailed balance w s k i i In this case, the kinetic equations have the form: Let us use the notations ) ⟶ {\displaystyle w_{r}^{+}=w_{r}^{-}} do not depend on (positive) values of equilibrium reaction rates It is sufficient to use in the Wegscheider conditions a basis of solutions of the system i : the activity is the concentration and the generalized mass action law is the usual law of mass action.
