In this paper, the stability analysis is performed on two Galerkin finite element schemes for solving reaction-diffusion system with fast reversible reaction.  Fourier (Von Neumann) method is implemented to propose time-step criteria for the consistent and the lumped schemes with four popular choices for . We have found that the two schemes are unconditionally stable when , while the consistent scheme is stable under the conditions  and  when . Also, the lumped scheme is stable under the conditions  and  when .
