For gas absorption accompanied by two consecutive second‐order reactions, the reaction factors of the film and penetration theories were solved by the orthogonal collocation method. For equivalent definition of the other physico‐chemical parameters, the reaction factors from the two theories differ only slightly. In film theory, it is shown that the film‐bulk boundary condition is of importance only for small values of M. It is also shown that the difference between the point yields of the film and penetration theories is generally small, although it is larger than the difference in reaction factors for the two theories.
