Question

thanks.

1. Consider the autocatalyic reaction A right arrow B A + B right arrow C+ A (a) Give differential equations describing the rates of change of [A], [B], and [C]. (b) Assuming the steady state approximation is valid and that the initial concentration of A is [A]0 and those of B and C are zero, develop expressions for [A], [B], and [C]. (e) Under what limiting condition will the steady state approximation be valid? (d) Without assuming the steady state approximation, develop expressions for [A] and [B] as a function of time. (e) From your general solution, verify the steady state solution for [B] as t approaches infinity.

Explanation / Answer

dA/dt = - (k1 + k2) A

dB/dt = k1*A - k2*A* B

dC/dt = k2*A* B
