For a vapour phase catalytic reaction (A + B → P) which follows the Ridel mechanism and the reaction step is rate controlling, the rate of reaction is given by (reaction rate is irreversible, product also absorbs) ?
A -rA = (k . PA . PB)/(1 + KAPA + KPPP)
B -rA = (k . PA
C -rA = (k . PA . PB)/(1 + KAPB + KBPB . KPPP)
D -rA = (k . PA . PB)/(1 + KAPA)
Correct Answer: -rA = (k . PA . PB)/(1 + KAPA + KPPP)
