Suppose in an autocatalytic chemical reaction, compound A reacts to form compound B. Next, suppose that the initial concentration of A is CA0 and CB(t) is the concentration of B at time t. Then CA0 CB(t) is the concentration of A at time t. Determine CB(t) if CB(0) = CB0

Question
Suppose in an autocatalytic chemical reaction, compound A reacts to form compound B. Next, suppose that the initial concentration of A is CA0 and CB(t) is the concentration of B at time t. Then CA0 CB(t) is the concentration of A at time t. Determine CB(t) if CB(0) = CB0
Note: in an autocatalytic reaction, the resulting substance can stimulate the reaction so that the CB value is proportional to CB(t) and CA0 -CB(t), whose relationship can be written as:
dCB(t)/dt= kCB (t)[CA0 - CB(t)], k = reaction rate coefficient dt
