Chemical Reaction Engineering
"A spherical porous catalyst particle of radius R is subjected to reactant A which reacts to form B by a zero order surface reaction A → B. Film mass transfer resistance is negligible and pore diffusion of A is rate controlling. The effectiveness factor of the catalyst is reported as 7/8. Which of the following statement is true?A. Inner catalyst core of radius R/8 does not participate in reaction."

Inner catalyst core of radius R/8 does not participate in reaction
Inner catalyst core of radius R/2 does not participate in reaction
Ffectiveness factor for a zero order reaction can not be 7/8 as it must always be 1
Inner catalyst core of radius 7R/8 does not participate in reaction

Chemical Reaction Engineering
The rate of the heterogenous catalytic reaction A(g) + B(g) ? C(g) is given by -rA = k.KA.pA.PB/(1 + KA.PA + Kc.pc), where KA and Kc are the adsorption equilibrium constants. The rate controlling step for this reaction isA. absorption of A.

Surface reaction between absorbed A and absorbed B
Surface reaction between A in the gas phase and absorbed B
Absorption of A
Surface reaction between absorbed A and B in the gas phase
