Reaction Rate in Reactor Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Reaction Rate = Change in Number of Moles/(Reactor Volume*Time Interval)
r = Δn/(V_reactor*Δt)
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Reaction Rate - (Measured in Mole per Cubic Meter Second) - The reaction rate or rate of reaction is the speed at which a chemical reaction takes place.
Change in Number of Moles - (Measured in Mole) - Change in Number of Moles is the difference of moles of products and reactants.
Reactor Volume - (Measured in Cubic Meter) - The Reactor Volume gives us the capacity of the reactor.
Time Interval - (Measured in Second) - A Time Interval is the amount of time required for the change from initial to the final state.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Change in Number of Moles: 4 Mole --> 4 Mole No Conversion Required
Reactor Volume: 2.49 Cubic Meter --> 2.49 Cubic Meter No Conversion Required
Time Interval: 0.5333 Second --> 0.5333 Second No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

r = Δn/(V_reactor*Δt) --> 4/(2.49*0.5333)

Evaluating ... ...

r = 3.01223645754968

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

3.01223645754968 Mole per Cubic Meter Second --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

3.01223645754968 ≈ 3.012236 Mole per Cubic Meter Second <-- Reaction Rate

What is a chemical reactor?

A chemical reactor is an enclosed volume in which a chemical reaction takes place. In chemical engineering, it is generally understood to be a process vessel used to carry out a chemical reaction, which is one of the classic unit operations in chemical process analysis.

How to Calculate Reaction Rate in Reactor?

Reaction Rate in Reactor calculator uses Reaction Rate = Change in Number of Moles/(Reactor Volume*Time Interval) to calculate the Reaction Rate, The Reaction Rate in Reactor formula is defined as the speed at which a chemical reaction takes place, defined as proportional to the increase in the concentration of a product per unit time and to the decrease in the concentration of a reactant per unit time. Reaction Rate is denoted by r symbol.

How to calculate Reaction Rate in Reactor using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Reaction Rate in Reactor, enter Change in Number of Moles (Δn), Reactor Volume (V_reactor) & Time Interval (Δt) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Reaction Rate in Reactor calculation can be explained with given input values -> 3.34672 = 4/(2.49*0.5333).

FAQ

What is Reaction Rate in Reactor?

The Reaction Rate in Reactor formula is defined as the speed at which a chemical reaction takes place, defined as proportional to the increase in the concentration of a product per unit time and to the decrease in the concentration of a reactant per unit time and is represented as r = Δn/(V_reactor*Δt) or Reaction Rate = Change in Number of Moles/(Reactor Volume*Time Interval). Change in Number of Moles is the difference of moles of products and reactants, The Reactor Volume gives us the capacity of the reactor & A Time Interval is the amount of time required for the change from initial to the final state.

How to calculate Reaction Rate in Reactor?

The Reaction Rate in Reactor formula is defined as the speed at which a chemical reaction takes place, defined as proportional to the increase in the concentration of a product per unit time and to the decrease in the concentration of a reactant per unit time is calculated using Reaction Rate = Change in Number of Moles/(Reactor Volume*Time Interval). To calculate Reaction Rate in Reactor, you need Change in Number of Moles (Δn), Reactor Volume (V_reactor) & Time Interval (Δt). With our tool, you need to enter the respective value for Change in Number of Moles, Reactor Volume & Time Interval and hit the calculate button. You can also select the units (if any) for Input(s) and the Output as well.

How many ways are there to calculate Reaction Rate?

In this formula, Reaction Rate uses Change in Number of Moles, Reactor Volume & Time Interval. We can use 2 other way(s) to calculate the same, which is/are as follows -

Reaction Rate = Change in Number of Moles/(Solid Volume*Time Interval)
