Albert, Daniel R. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2020
Monte Carlo simulations for uncertainty propagation take as inputs the uncertainty distribution for each variable and an equation for the calculation of a desired quantity. The desired quantity is then calculated by randomly drawing from the specified uncertainty distributions of the input variables. This calculation is then repeated many times…

Li, Zhao; Corti, David S. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2018
The application of the Reaction Monte Carlo (RxMC) algorithm to standard textbook problems in chemical reaction equilibria is discussed. The RxMC method is a molecular simulation algorithm for studying the equilibrium properties of reactive systems, and therefore provides the opportunity to develop computer-based "experiments" for the…
