Chapter 3: Rate Laws

Relative Rates of Reaction

The Reaction:


is carried out in a reactor. If at a particular point, the rate of disappearance of A is 10 mol/dm3/s, what are the rates of B and C?

The Reaction:


is carried out in a reactor. If at a particular point, the rate of disappearance of A is 10 mol/dm3/s, what are the rates of B and C?

Solution

The rate of disappearance of A, -ra, is


or the rate of formation of species A is

The relative rates are

Species B

The rate of formation of species B is



The rate of disappearance of B, -rb,is

Species C


The rate of formation of C, -rc, is
