On the mapping of chains of first order chemical reactions on random walks.
We present the transient solution to a random walk problem which characterizes chemical kinetic processes in which a particular state may have a finite number of internal states. While there are many chemical and physical examples, we introduce the solution through models of biophysical interest.
