Abstract An analysis is performed to explore the effects of homogenous-heterogeneous reactions on two-dimensional flow of Prandtl fluid over a stretching sheet. In present analysis, we used the developed model of homogeneous–heterogeneous reactions in boundary layer flow. The mathematical configuration of presented flow phenomenon yields the nonlinear partial differential equations. Using scaling transformations, the governing partial differential equations (momentum equation and homogenous-heterogeneous reactions equations) are transformed into non-linear ordinary differential equations (ODE’s). Then, resulting non-linear ODE’s are solved by computational scheme known as shooting method. The quantitative and qualitative manners of concerned physical quantities (velocity, concentration and drag force coefficient) are examined under prescribed physical constrained through figures and tables. It is observed that velocity profile enhances verses fluid parameters α and β while Hartmann number reduced it. The homogeneous and heterogeneous reactions parameters have reverse effects on concentration profile. Concentration profile shows retarding behavior for large values of Schmidt number. Skin fraction coefficient enhances with increment in Hartmann number H and fluid parameter α .
