What are k1, k2, kw and kg?
In a chain reaction, the reaction rate constant for the chain initiation step reaction is given by k1,
the reaction rate constant for the chain propagation step reaction is given by k2,
the reaction rate constant for the chain termination step reaction is given by k3 but as the destruction of radical in the rate termination step may result in two ways, i.e. at the wall of the vessel or by direct collision with another radical, therefore the rate constant for termination step is divided into two parts as in the rate constant for the reaction taking place at the wall is given by kw and the rate constant for the reaction in which direct collision takes place is referred as kg.
How to Calculate Concentration of Radical formed during Chain Propagation Step given kw and kg?
Concentration of Radical formed during Chain Propagation Step given kw and kg calculator uses Concentration of Radical given CP = (Reaction Rate Constant for Initiation Step*Concentration of Reactant A)/(Reaction Rate Constant for Propagation Step*(1-No. of Radicals Formed)*Concentration of Reactant A+(Rate Constant at Wall+Rate Constant within Gaseous Phase)) to calculate the Concentration of Radical given CP, The Concentration of Radical formed during Chain Propagation Step given kw and kg formula is defined as the amount of radical formed in the chain propagation step of a chain reaction. Concentration of Radical given CP is denoted by [R]CP symbol.
How to calculate Concentration of Radical formed during Chain Propagation Step given kw and kg using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Concentration of Radical formed during Chain Propagation Step given kw and kg, enter Reaction Rate Constant for Initiation Step (k1), Concentration of Reactant A ([A]), Reaction Rate Constant for Propagation Step (k2), No. of Radicals Formed (α), Rate Constant at Wall (kw) & Rate Constant within Gaseous Phase (kg) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Concentration of Radical formed during Chain Propagation Step given kw and kg calculation can be explained with given input values -> 7.2E-5 = (0.07*60500)/(1.1E-07*(1-2.5)*60500+(30.75+27.89)).
