The following setup shows how to define chemical reactions in the inputs file.
Only ``IdealGas`` constraint types can be used when solving chemistry, as the
``IncompressibleFluid`` constraint would be inconsistent with the nature of
a problem where the fluid density is not constant because of mass transfer due
to chemical reactions.
