The rate expression for a heterogenous catalytic reaction is given by, - rA = K.KA PA(1 + KA.PA + KR.PR), where K is surface reaction rate constant and KA and KR are absorption equilibrium constants of A and R respectively. If KR PR >> (1 + KA PA), the apparent activation energy EA is equal to (given E is the activation energy for the reaction and ΔHR and ΔHA are the activation energies of adsorption of R and A) |
A. | E |
B. | E + ΔHA |
C. | E + ΔHA - ΔHR) |
D. | ΔHA + ΔHR |
Answer» D. ΔHA + ΔHR | |
