Design

By Charles G. Hill

The reaction rate constant for the gas phase decomposition of ethylene oxide is
0.0212 min at 450 C.

At time zero, pure ethylene oxide is admitted to a constant temperature, constant

volume reaction vessel at a pressure of 2.0 atm and a temperature of 450 C.
After 50 min, what is the total pressure in the reaction vessel? Ideal gas behavior
may be assumed.

By Charles G. Hill

The following addition reaction takes place in the gas phase at 400

1
A +B

The initial composition is as follows (mole percents).

A 0.40

B 0.40

C 0.11

Inerts 0.09

The reaction takes place in an isothermal reactor that is maintained at a constant

pressure of 1 atm. If the reaction is first- order in A and first-order in B, and if
the value of k is 2 liters/mole-min, how long will it be before the mole fraction C
reaches 0.15?

E. and Davis, Robert J. (2003) McGraw-Hill Highe

When conducting a reaction to give a desired product, it is common that other

reactions proceed simultaneously. Thus, more than a single reaction must be
considered (i.e., a reaction network), and the issue of selectivity becomes
important.

Consider the reaction network of two irreversible (one-way), first-order reactions

in series:

K1 K2
A B C

This network can represent a wide variety of important classes of reactions. For
example, oxidation reactions occurring in excess oxidant, where B is the desired
product. Calculate the time when production is high.

Elemental dimerization reaction 2A P gas phase is carried out in an isothermal,

isobaric reactor manner. A pure loaded into the reactor, which operates at 5 atm
and 300 C. Based on the data below, determine:
