Chemical Reaction Engineering

Tutorial – 1 03/08/23

Instructor: - Dr. Tarak Mondal


Ques.1 A reaction has the stoichiometric equation A + B → 2R. What
is the order of reaction?
1
Ques.2 Given the reaction 2NO2 + 2 O2 → N2O5, what is the relation
between the rates of formation and disappearance of the three
reaction components?
1 1
Ques.3 A reaction with stoichiometric equation 2 A+B→R+ 2 S
has the following rate expression: -rA = 2CA0.5CB
What is the rate expression for this reaction if the stoichiometric
equation is written as A + 2B → 2R + S?
Ques.4 For the complex reaction with stoichiometry A + 3B →2R + S
and with second-order rate expression: -rA = k1CACB. How are the
reaction rates of each species related?
Ques:5 The pyrolysis of ethane proceeds with an activation energy of
about 300 kJ/mol. How much faster is the decomposition at 650°C
than at 500°C?
Ques.6 A 1100-K n-nonane thermally cracks (breaks down into
smaller molecules) 20 times as rapidly as at [Link] the activation
energy for this decomposition.
Ques.7 Write the rate laws for the reaction 2A + B → C, if the
reaction is first order in A and overall zero order. -rA = ?
Ques.8 The Experimentally determined overall order for the reaction
A + B → C + D is 2. Then the
a) Reaction is elementary with a molecularity of 2.
b) molecularity of reaction is 2, but the reaction may not be
elementary.
c) Reaction may be elementary with a molecularity of 2.
d) Reaction is elementary but the molecularity may not be 2.
