This lecture discusses the application of Brownian motion in modeling chemical reactions, focusing on the escape of particles over potential barriers. The lecture explores the relationship between Brownian motion and chemical reaction rates, using the transition state method. It delves into the concept of particles trapped in potential holes and their escape mechanisms, providing insights into the diffusion model of chemical reactions.
