Catalyst carriers___________________?
A Have very high selectivity
B Increase the activity of a catalyst
C Provide large surface area with a small amount of active material
D Inhibit catalyst poisoning
Correct Answer: Provide large surface area with a small amount of active material
Rate determining step in a reaction consisting of a number of steps in series is the ______________ step?
A Fastest
B Slowest
C Intermediate
D Data insufficient; can’t be predicted
Correct Answer: Slowest
____________ is the controlling step in a highly temperature sensitive fluid-solid non-catalytic reaction ?
A Gas film diffusion
B Ash diffusion
C Chemical reaction
D None of these
Correct Answer: Chemical reaction
If in the gaseous phase reaction, N2O4 ⇌ 2NO2, x is the part of N2O4 which dissociates, then the number of molecules at equilibrium will be___________________?
A (1 + x)
B (1 – x)
C (1 + x)2
D (1 – x)2
Correct Answer: (1 + x)
The catalyst in a second order reversible reaction increases the rate of the forward reaction___________________?
A And decreases that of backward reaction
B And backward reaction equally
C Only
D To a greater extent than that of the backward reaction
Correct Answer: And backward reaction equally
The rate constant of a first order reaction depends on the ________________?
A Concentration of the reactant
B Temperature
C Concentration of the product
D Time
Correct Answer: Temperature
The units of frequency factor in Arrhenius equation_________________?
A Are the same as those of the rate constant
B Depend on the order of the reaction
C Depend on temperature, pressure etc. of the reaction
D Are cycles per unit time
Correct Answer: Are the same as those of the rate constant
Rate constant for a first order reaction does not depend upon reaction time, extent of reaction and the initial concentration of reactants; but it is a function of reaction temperature. In a chemical reaction, the time required to reduce the concentration of reactant from 100 gm moles/litre to 50 gm moles/litre is same as that required to reduce it from 2 gm moles/litre to 1 gm mole/litre in the same volume. Then the order of this reaction is ?
A 0
B 1
C 2
D 3
Correct Answer: 1
A catalyst in a chemical reaction _______________ free energy change in the reaction?
A Increases
B Decreases
C Either A. or B.; depends on the type of catalyst
D Neither A. nor B.
Correct Answer: Either A. or B.; depends on the type of catalyst
The ratio of volume of mixed reactor to the volume of P.F.R. (for identical flow rate, feed composition and conversion) for zero order reaction is________________?
A
B 0
C 1
D > 1
Correct Answer: 1
