The goal of this study is to figure out how MHD nanofluids moving past a stretching surface. In the study, the effects of different flow parameters are reported. The partial differential equations that describe governing the flow are turned into the ordinary differential equations using the suitable transformations. Different thermo-physical factors, including the magnetic parameter, viscous dissipation, Prandtl number, Lewis number, nonlinear stretching parameter, chemical reaction parameter, Soret and Dufour numbers regulate the transformed mathematical model. Keller-Box method is used to numerically solve the converted nonlinear ordinary differential equations. The current findings were in excellent accord with the already reported findings. Tables and graphs are used to display the numerical and graphical findings.
