What is Set of Two Parallel Reactions?
In a set of two parallel reactions two first order reactions takes place concurrently. Starting from a reactant (here, A) two elementary reactions take place parallelly to give products ( here, B and C ), having reaction rate constants k1 and k2 respectively.
A→B , here rate constant = k1
At the same time,
A →C , here the rate constant = k2
How to Calculate Concentration of Product B in Set of Two Parallel Reactions?
Concentration of Product B in Set of Two Parallel Reactions calculator uses Concentration of Reactant B = Reaction Rate Constant 1/(Reaction Rate Constant 1+Reaction Rate Constant 2)*Initial Concentration of Reactant A*(1-exp(-(Reaction Rate Constant 1+Reaction Rate Constant 2)*Time)) to calculate the Concentration of Reactant B, The Concentration of Product B in Set of Two Parallel Reactions formula is defined as the as amount substance B formed in the reacting system after time t in a parallel reaction. Concentration of Reactant B is denoted by Rb symbol.
How to calculate Concentration of Product B in Set of Two Parallel Reactions using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Concentration of Product B in Set of Two Parallel Reactions, enter Reaction Rate Constant 1 (k1), Reaction Rate Constant 2 (k2), Initial Concentration of Reactant A (A0) & Time (t) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Concentration of Product B in Set of Two Parallel Reactions calculation can be explained with given input values -> 0.001731 = 5.67E-06/(5.67E-06+8.87E-05)*100000*(1-exp(-(5.67E-06+8.87E-05)*3600)).
