The study of chemical reaction and convective boundary conditions on thermosolutal behavior of magneto hydrodynamic (MHD) fluid flow above a stretching sheet has been investigated in the current investigation. A mathematical model is established and the governing partial differential system is modified into a set of nonlinear coupled ordinary differential system and it is evaluated by using the numerical scheme of RK method. The physical importance of different flow variables such as the magnetic parameter, vortex viscosity parameter, order of chemical reaction, Prandtl, skin friction coefficient and Eckert numbers are discussed in detailed through graphical representation.
