Search engines, my limited knowledge of chemistry-related terms and inability of discovering an acceptable answer with search results have finally brought me to this forum of sorts.
Are there any chemical reactions with the ability to reciprocate with minimal intervention? An example would be Compound A transforming to Compound B while maintaining a strong potential to reciprocate transformation to Compound A. By minimal intervention, I mean something small, like a change in density, conductivity or temperature that would seem miniscule out of context. You could also say efficient instead of miniscule. If not, are there any theories that work in this area of chemistry? I sat on this thought for a couple of days and surprised myself with the interest I retained.

The iodine clock experiment sounds similar to what you refer to. It's why they use iodine in a lot of solar devices.

the term you're looking for is oscillating.

That's generally how chemical reactions work.
