and the Planck Distribution at 500 K, and the numerical and analytical
determination of the energy density.
Answer
to Questions #2 - #4 of Kinetics Problem With Correct Model
- Spreadsheet with plots of [C4H9O(1)] versus time. Question #2:
Kintecus output versus Steady-State Approximation. Questions #3 and
#4 compare original conditions versus doubling the initial [NO] versus
with original initial [NO] but double the initial [O2]. Answer
to Questions #3 and #4 of Kinetics Problem With Original Model
- In this model, the removal of [C4H9O(1)] is much slower and the steady
state approximation does not apply to it.
