Data Source and Methodology
All calculations are based on the formulae and data provided in Scientific Article on Batch Reactors. All calculations strictly adhere to these methodologies.
The Formula Explained
\[ C = C_0 \times e^{-kt} \]
Glossary of Variables
- k: Reaction rate constant.
- C0: Initial concentration of the reactant.
- t: Time in minutes or hours.
- C: Final concentration after time t.
How it Works: A Step-by-Step Example
Consider an initial concentration (C0) of 1.0 mol/L, a reaction rate (k) of 0.1 min-1, and a time (t) of 10 minutes. By applying the formula, the final concentration (C) is calculated as:
\[ C = 1.0 \times e^{-0.1 \times 10} = 0.3679 \text{ mol/L} \]
