An exact solution to the problem of free convective flow past a semi-infinite vertical plate with uniform heat and mass flux has been analyzed. The dimensionless governing equations are solved using Laplace-transform technique. The velocity, temperature and concentration fields are studied for different physical parameters. It was observed that the velocity increases with increasing values of thermal Grashof number or solutal Grashof number. It was also observed that the velocity decreases with increasing values of Prandtl number or the Schmidt number.
