Consider the endothermic reactions in Exercise 3-32 Assume that independent reactions are conducted
(a) What is the probability that the first reaction to result in a final temperature less than 272 K is the tenth reaction?
(b) What is the mean number of reactions until the first final temperature is less than 272 K?
(c) What is the probability that the first reaction to result in a final temperature less than 272 K occurs within three or fewer reactions?
(d) What is the mean number of reactions until two reactions result in final temperatures less than 272 K?
The data from 200 endothermic reactions involving sodium bicarbonate are summarized as follows:
Final Temperature Conditions__________________ Number of Reactions
266K...........................................................................48
271 K...........................................................................60
274K...........................................................................92
Calculate the probability mass function of final temperature.
