This quiz contains multiple-choice problems on mole balances, reactions rates and classification.
Which of the following statements is true about a catalyst?
The chemical reaction rate is a/an
Extensive property
Intensive property
Chemical property
Physical property
The general mole balance equation of species ‘i’ at any instant is as follows
Rate of moles of ‘i’ in = Rate of moles of ‘i’ out
Rate of moles of ‘i’ in + Rate of moles of ‘i’ out = Rate of moles of ‘i’ accumulated
Rate of moles of ‘i’ in + Rate of moles of ‘i’ accumulated = Rate of moles ‘i’ out
Rate of moles of ‘i’ in – Rate of moles of ‘i’ consumed by reaction – Rate of moles of ‘i’ out = Rate of moles of ‘i’ accumulated
