andreev551 [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Search for "Rosalind Franklin: DNA's unsung hero - Cláudio L. Guerra" which basically summarizes what Rosalind did and how we was snubbed from receiving the noble prize even though she had vast and critical evidence to highlight the structure of DNA. You can look for more sources but I can tell you a quick recap:

Rosalind Franklin was born in an era where women scientists or workers were very uncommon and they were even discriminated and looked down upon. After her phD., she was working to find the structure of DNA and soon she was able to form an x-ray image of it. However, her lab colleague took the picture and showed it to other scientists (Watson and Crick) without the knowledge or permission of Rosalind. Here Rosalind was working on analyzing her data and on other part of world Watson and Crick were doing the same. Based on Watson and Crick's analysis, they came up with the correct structure of DNA and soon Rosalind got done as well. Both submitted their paper to journal, however, the journal placed Watson and Crick paper before Rosalind (making it look like Rosalind just confirmed what Watson and Crick proposed). This made it look like Watson and Crick were geniuses behind DNA structure whereas, in reality, it was Rosalind. She would have received Nobel Prize but she died of Cancer and Nobel prizes are not awarded to dead people.

t-Butyl alcohol (TBA) is an important octane enhancer that is used to replace lead additives in gasoline [Ind. Eng. Chem. Res.,

Andrew [12]

Complete Question:

t-Butyl alcohol (TBA) is an important octane enhancer that is used to replace lead additives in gasoline [Ind. Eng. Chem. Res., 27, 2224 (1988)]. TBA was produced by the liquid-phase hydration (W) of isobutene (I) over an Amberlyst-15 catalyst. The system is normally a multiphase mixture of hydrocarbon, water, and solid catalysts. However, the use of cosolvents or excess TBA can achieve reasonable miscibility. The reaction mechanism is believed to be

I + S ⇄ I*S

W + S ⇄ W*S

W*S + I*S ⇄ TBA * S * S

TBA * S ⇄ TBA + S

Derive a rate law assuming:

(a) The surface reaction is rate limiting

(b) The adsorption of isobutene is limiting

(c) The reaction follows Eley-rideal Kinetics

I*S+W ⇄ TBA * S

and surface reaction is limiting

(d) Isobutene (I) and water (W) are adsorbed on different sites

I + S₁ ⇄ I*S₁

W + S₂ ⇄ W*S₂

TBA is not on the surface, and the surface reaction is rate-limiting

$[Ans: r'_{TBA}=-r'_1=\frac{k[C_1C_w-C_{TBA/K_C}]}{(1+K_WC_W)(1+K_1C_1)} ]$

(e) What generalizations can you make by comparing rate laws derived from part (a) through (d)?

Answer and explanation:

The mechanism for the production of t-butyl alcohol is as follows:

the reaction and rate law for the adsorption of isobutene over the amberlyst-15 is as follows:

I + S ⇄ I * S $-r_{ADI} = k_I(C_1C_v-\frac{C_{I.S}}{K_I} )$

where $C_V$ is the concentration of vacant site

$K_I$ is the equilibrium constant of the adsorption

$k_I$ is the rate constant for forward

$C_I,C_{I.S}$ are concentration of isobutene and site filled with isobutene

The reaction and rate law for the adsorption of water (W) over the amberlyst-15 catalyst catalyst is as follows

W + S ⇄ W.S $-r_{ADW} = k_W(C_WC_V-\frac{C_{W.S}}{K_W} )$

The reaction and rate law for the surface reaction on the catalyst is as follows

W.S + I.S ⇄ TBA . S + Sn $-r_s = k_s(C_{W.S}C_{I.S}-\frac{C_{TBA.S}C_V}{K_s} )$

The reaction and rate law for the desorption of TBA from catalyst is as follows

TBA . S ⇄ TBA + S $-r_{D TBA} = k_{DTBA}(C_{TBA.S}-\frac{C_{TBA}C_V}{K_{DTBA}} )$
