In this work, chemical reaction and soret effects on casson MHD fluid flow over a vertical plate with heat source/sink is examined. This problem is solved numerically using the perturbation technique for the velocity, the temperature and the concentration species. The skin friction, nusselt number and sherwood number are also obtained and are shown in tabular form. The effects of various physical parameters like as chemical reaction parameter, Soret parameter, radiation parameter, heat parameter, casson parameter, schmidt number, grashof number, prandtl number, hartmann parameter, and modified grashof numbers have been discussed in detailed.
