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 Time taken for Set of Two Parallel Reactions?
Time taken for Set of Two Parallel Reactions calculator uses Life Time for Parallel Reaction = 1/(Reaction Rate Constant 1+Reaction Rate Constant 2)*ln(Initial Concentration of Reactant A/Reactant A Concentration) to calculate the Life Time for Parallel Reaction, The Time taken for Set of Two Parallel Reactions formula is defined as the interval of time required for the the reactant A to be reduced from it's initial concentration to it's present concentration. Life Time for Parallel Reaction is denoted by t1/2av symbol.
How to calculate Time taken for Set of Two Parallel Reactions using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Time taken for Set of Two Parallel Reactions, enter Reaction Rate Constant 1 (k1), Reaction Rate Constant 2 (k2), Initial Concentration of Reactant A (A0) & Reactant A Concentration (RA) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Time taken for Set of Two Parallel Reactions calculation can be explained with given input values -> 5325.07 = 1/(5.67E-06+8.87E-05)*ln(100000/60500).
