Applications of the Law of Mass Action

This law is also applicable to semiconductors and, therefore, has several important implications in the fields of electronics and semiconductor physics. Here, the law of mass action provides a relationship between the concentrations of electron holes and free electrons when the semiconductor system is in a state of thermal equilibrium.

The law of mass action also has applications in the following fields:

• Mathematical ecology
• Sociophysics (social physics)
• Mathematical epidemiology
