Chapter 2, Problem 2.52P
Interpretation Introduction

(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 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,

Cp(g/L)=CA0(1ekt)kisrateconstant

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

A spreadsheet should be used to generate the plot of part (a) and the corresponding value of k should be determined.

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,

Cp(g/L)=CA0(1ekt)kisrateconstant

Interpretation Introduction

(c)

Interpretation:

A good estimation for k should be given.
