Chemical Reaction Engineering
For a heterogenous catalytic reaction, A + B → C, with equimole feed of A and B, the initial rate - rA0 is invariant with total pressure. The rate controlling step is
Surface reaction between A in the gas phase and absorbed B
Surface Kc/(1 + TS) reaction between absorbed A and B in the gas phase
Desorption of C
Surface reaction between absorbed A and absorbed B
