Calculating the reaction rate of one reactant from that of another The reform reaction between steam and gaseous methane (CH₂) produces "synthesis gas," a mixture of carbon monoxide gas and dihydrogen ges. Synthesis gas is one of the most widely used industrial chemicals, and is the major industrial source of hydrogen. Suppose a chemical engineer studying a new catalyst for the reform reaction finds that 717, iters per second of methane are consumed when the reaction is n at 213. "C and the methane is supplied at 0.74 atm. Calculate the rate at which dihydrogen is being produced. Give your answer in klograma per second. Round your answer to 2 significant digits. C.P x

Determine rxnH 25 C for the following reaction: NO g O2 g NO2 g This reaction is a major participant in the formation of smog.
Substances that poison a catalyst pose a major concern for many engineering designs, including those for catalytic converters. One design option is to add materials that react with potential poisons before they reach the catalyst. Among the commonly encountered catalyst poisons are silicon and phosphorus, which typically form phosphate or silicate ions in the oxidizing environment of an engine. Group 2 elements are added to the catalyst to react with these contaminants before they reach the working portion of the catalytic converter. If estimates show that a catalytic converter will be exposed to 625 g of silicon during its lifetime, what mass of beryllium would need to be included in the design?

CO(g)+2H2(g)⇄CH3OH(g)K=2.2×104at298K A stoichiometric mixture of CO(g) and H2(g) was allowed to react in two different 2.0L rigid containers at a constant temperature of 298K. The reaction is represented by the equation above. Diagram 1 represents the uncatalyzed reaction and diagram 2 represents the catalyzed reaction one hour after the reactants were mixed. Which of the following correctly explains the experimental results represented in the particle diagrams? A Although the reaction is thermodynamically favorable because ΔG°<0 based on the value of K, only the catalyzed reaction could proceed in one hour because its reactant molecules had a higher average kinetic energy. B Although the reaction is thermodynamically favorable because ΔG°<0 based on the value of K, only the catalyzed reaction could proceed in one hour because it has a lower activation-energy reaction pathway. C The reaction is not thermodynamically favorable because ΔG°>0 based on the value of K, but…

Suppose you are brewing beer, and you want to estimate how long it will take to complete the fermentation process. You place1.00 kgof sucrose(MM=342.3 g/mol)and yeast in your fermentation vessel and add water to a final volume of3.50 L. You decide that your reaction will be considered completed when the concentration of sugar decreases to0.0100M. How long will it take (in minutes) from the start of the reaction to the completion of the reaction?
