Problem 5 (25 points). Consider the elementary reactions Ak1BB+Ck2D In a constant volume batch reaction with CC0=0.5CA0. Suppose that k2CC0k1 a. Sketch the concentrations of CA,CB and CC vs. time. Can you use the pseudo-steady state approximation on B ? Why or why not? b. Give an approximate expression for the time t=t1 when the behavior of CB changes. Give expressions for CB(t) before and after t1
