Langmuir Hinshelwood kinetics is followed by the reaction:(a) Formation of hydrogen bromide(b) Vapor phase decomposition of ethanal(c) Cis-trans isomerization(d) Reversible catalytic decomposition of isopropylbenzeneI got this question in exam.This key question is from Non topic in division Rate Laws and Stoichiometry of Chemical Reaction Engineering

Answer»

Right CHOICE is (d) Reversible catalytic DECOMPOSITION of isopropylbenzene

To ELABORATE: C6H5CH(CH3)2 ←→ C6H6 + C3H6

Let’s represent this reaction SYMBOLICALLY asC ←→ B + P

the reaction follows the rate law-r’C = [k(PC – PBPP/KP)] / [1 + KCPC + KBPB] which is the LANGMUIR Hinshelwood model.
