having trouble using NDsolve function

Posted 11 years ago
given a equation
NDSolve[{c' == -0.1*(c - 0.2)/(
5*10^-6 (1 + 4*6*2.5*0.2^2.5*c^1.5)/(0.2^2.5 + c^2.5)^2),  c[0] == 1}, c, {x, 0, 0.001}]
i get a error message
NDSolve::dvnoarg: The function c appears with no arguments. >>
i am not quite sure how to use NDSolve function
can u help me?

(*You need to use c[x] and not just "c" in the differential equation*)

ClearAll[x, c]
sol = First@NDSolve[{c'[x] == -0.1*(c[x] - 0.2)/(5*10^-6 (1 + 4*6*2.5*0.2^2.5*c[x]^1.5)/(0.2^2.5 + c[x]^2.5)^2), c[0] == 1},
   c[x], {x, 0, 0.001}]
Plot[Evaluate[c[x] /. sol], {x, 0, 0.001}]
