For the sequential reaction $\mathrm{A} \stackrel{k_A}{\rightarrow} \mathrm{B} \stackrel{k_B}{\rightarrow} \mathrm{C}$, $k_A=1.00 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{~s}^{-1}$. Using a computer spreadsheet program such as Excel, plot the concentration of each species for cases where $k_B=10 k_A, k_B=1.5 k_A$, and $k_B=0.1 k_A$. Assume that only the reactant is present when the reaction is initiated.
