The first order gas phase reaction as shown in the bellow figure is conducted isothermally in batch mode. The rate of change of conversion with time is given by________?
AdXA/dt = k1 (1 – XA)/(1 + XA)
BdXA/dt = k1 (1 – XA)
CdXA/dt = k1 (1 – XA)2 (1 + 2XA)
DdXA/dt = k1 (1 – XA) (1 + 0.5XA)
Correct answer
B. dXA/dt = k1 (1 – XA)
Explanation
The correct answer is dXA/dt = k1 (1 – XA).
