Textbook Question
Chapter 10, Problem 10.23P
The hydrogenation of ethylbenzene to ethylcyclohexane over a nickel-mordenite catalyst is zero order in both reactants up to an ethylbenzene conversion of 75% [Ind. Eng. Chem. Res., 28 (3), 260 (1989)]. At 553 K, k = 5.8 mol ethylbenzene/(dm3 of catalyst·h). When a 100-ppm thiophene concentration entered the system, the ethylbenzene conversion began to drop.
The reaction was carried out at 3 MPa and a molar ratio of H2/ETB = 10. Discuss the catalyst decay. Be quantitative where possible.

1. Copper is known to be toxic to fish, and in particular, the free ion Cu²+ species typically
shows greatest toxicity.
a. Calculate the speciation of Cu(II) for freshwater at a pH value of 8.3 as the hardness
increases from 20 (soft) to 100 (moderately hard) to 200 (very hard) mg/L as
CaCO3. Assume that the total divalent Cu(II) concentration is 10 µg/L.
b. Based on your findings in part (a), do you think it is appropriate to set a single
regulatory limit or should it depend on variables such as pH and hardness? Explain
your answer.
