Lecture Thursday 4/3/08 Normal Pentene Iso-Pentane Langmuir Adsorption Isotherm Catalytic Converters for Automobiles
2
Last Time Catalytic Reforming Reaction (Gasoline) Normal Pentane Octane Number =62 Iso-Pentane Octane Number=90 Normal Pentene Iso-Pentane
4
Steps in a Catalytic Reaction
33
More Catalysis Langmuir Adsorption Isotherm Increasing T Slope=k A
34
Automotive Catalytic Converters -Placed inline with exhaust system (~ $500) -NO x plays big role in smog formation Propose a mechanism (from graph data, we see CO 2 is not on the surface and that the surface reaction is irreversible)
35
Is this consistent with the given data? -No CO 2 in rate law -rate law decreases as P N 2 increases The contribution of P N 2 is very small and can be neglected optimum
