Chemical Reaction Engineering
For the chemical reaction X → Y, it is observed that, on doubling the concentration of 'X', the reaction rate quadruples. If the reaction rate is proportional to Cxn, then what is the value of 'n' ?
The surface of the catalyst does not play an important role during reaction
Free energy of activation is lowered in the presence of catalyst, which remains unchanged at the end of reaction
The catalyst does not form an intermediate complex with the reactant
A relatively small amount of catalyst can cause the conversion of large amount of reactants which does not mean that catalyst concentration is important
