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 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 C in Set of Two Parallel Reactions?
Concentration of Product C in Set of Two Parallel Reactions calculator uses Concentration of Reactant C = Reaction Rate Constant 2/(Reaction Rate Constant 1+Reaction Rate Constant 2)*Initial Concentration of Reactant A*(1-exp(-(Reaction Rate Constant 1+Reaction Rate Constant 2))) to calculate the Concentration of Reactant C, The Concentration of Product C in Set of Two Parallel Reactions formula is defined as the the amount of substance C that can be formed in the reacting system after a time interval t in a parallel reaction system. Concentration of Reactant C is denoted by RC symbol.
How to calculate Concentration of Product C in Set of Two Parallel Reactions using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Concentration of Product C in Set of Two Parallel Reactions, enter Reaction Rate Constant 2 (k2), Reaction Rate Constant 1 (k1) & Initial Concentration of Reactant A (A0) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Concentration of Product C in Set of Two Parallel Reactions calculation can be explained with given input values -> 8.9E-6 = 8.87E-05/(5.67E-06+8.87E-05)*100000*(1-exp(-(5.67E-06+8.87E-05))).
