Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
If the given equation is correct, the graph of a straight line should be plotted.
Concept introduction:
A reactor was used to convert the reactant A to the product P. A study was carried out to analyze the reaction
(b)
Interpretation:
A spreadsheet should be used to generate the plot of part (a) and the corresponding value of k should be determined.
Concept introduction:
A reactor was used to convert the reactant A to the product P. A study was carried out to analyze the reaction mechanism of this reaction. The results of this study showed that if the initial reactant concentration of A (CA0 ) and the reaction temperature (T) is kept constant, then the concentration of the product P in the reactor increases with time (t) according to the following expression,
(c)
Interpretation:
A good estimation for k should be given.
Concept introduction:
A reactor was used to convert the reactant A to the product P. A study was carried out to analyze the reaction mechanism of this reaction. The results of this study showed that if the initial reactant concentration of A (CA0 ) and the reaction temperature (T) is kept constant, then the concentration of the product P in the reactor increases with time (t) according to the following expression,
(d)
Interpretation:
The possible experimental errors should be determined.
