! Classification of reactions:
- According to the number of phases involved in the reaction
a) Homogeneous – chemical reactions in which the reactants
(or catalyst and reactants) are in the same phase
b) Heterogeneous – chemical reactions in which the reactants
(or catalyst and reactants) are in two or more phases
Catalytic reactions: Ammonia synthesis, hydrocracking of crude oil,
Gas-To-Liquid (GTL)Non-catalytic reactions: Burning of coal, attack of solids by acids, etc.

1.1 Rate of Reaction
The rate of reaction can be expressed as the rate of
disappearance of a reactant or as the rate of appearance
(formation) of a product .
The rate of reaction is ( the number of moles of reactant
disappearing ) or ( the number of moles of product formation )
per ( unit time ) per ( unit volume ).

r A = the rate of formation of species A per unit volume-r A = the rate of a disappearance of species A per unit volumer B = the rate of formation of species B per unit volume
Example: A B
If B is being created at a rate of 0.2 moles/dm3/s. What are the rate offormation of B, rates of formation and disappearance of A ?
Rate of formation of B: r B = 0.2 mole/dm3/s
Rate of disappearance of A: -r A = 0.2 mole/dm3/s
Rate of formation of A: r A = -0.2 mole/dm3/s

Example 1.1A rocket engine burns a stoichiometric mixture of fuel (liquid hydrogen) in oxidant (liquid oxygen).The combustion chamber is cylindrical, 75 cm long and 60 cm in diameter, and the combustion
process produces 108 kg/s of exhaust gases (H2O). If combustion is complete, find the rate of
reaction of hydrogen and oxygen. Complete combustion: H2 + ! O2 H2O
Solution
Rate of reaction: and
Reactor volume: V = !/4 (0.6)2(0.75) = 0.2121 m3
H2O produced = 108 kg/s (1kmol/18 kg) = 6 kmol/s
According to the stoichiometry equation, to produce 6 kmol/s of H2O requires 6 kmol/s of H2 and
3 kmol/s of O2
Thus, H2 consumed= 6 kmol/s and O2 consumed = 3 kmol/s

1.8 Reversible Reaction
The net rate of formation of any species is equal to its rate of formation on the
forward reaction plus its rate of formation in the reverse reaction
Rate = rate forward + rate reverse
At equilibrium, net rate = 0 and the rate law must reduce to an equation that isthermodynamically consistent with the equilibrium constant for the reaction.

1.9 Stoichiometry!
So far, we have shown how the rate law can be expressed as a function ofconcentrations. Then, we need to express the concentration as a function of
conversion in order to size reactors.
!
Stoichiometry plays a major role if the rate law depends on more than one
species, we must relate the concentration of different species by
stoichiometric balance.

Write the rate law for the liquid phase reaction (follow the elementary rate law)solely in terms of conversion. The feed to the batch reactor is equal molar A and B

Species A is the limitingreactant because the feedis equal molar in A and B,
and two moles of Bconsumes 3 moles of A.

For the gas phase reaction 2A + B # C
The feed is equal molar in A and B. Calculate %
Solution
A is the limiting reactant
A + &B # &C
' = & - & -1 = -1
% = y A0' = & (-1) = -0.5
