SolutionsforChapter2
1.Find:
NumberofvalenceelectronsinGroupIIIBandGroup
VBelements.
Data:
PeriodicTableinAppendixA.
Solution:
Bydefinitionand/orbyexaminationofAppendix
B,GroupIIIBelementscontain3valenceelectronswhileGroupVBelementscontain5valenceelectrons.
2.Find:

to25oC.
Given:
Activationenergy,Q,forArrheniusProcessis
50kJ/mole.
Data:
R=8.314J/mol-K,K=oC+273
Assumptions:
FlowrateattemperatureTisgivenby
F(T)=Foexp(-Q/RT)
Solution:
Theratiooftheflowratesatanytwo
temperaturesis:
F(T1)=Foexp(-Q/RT1)=exp(-Q/R(1/T1-1/T2))
F(T2)Foexp(-Q/RT2)
F(25C)=exp(-50,000J/mol/8.134J/mol-K)(1/298K-1/283K))=2.91

80kJ/mole.
Data:
R=8.314J/mole-K,K=oC+273
Assumption:
PolymerizationrateattemperatureTisgiven
byP(T)=Poexp(-Q/RT)
Solution:
Theratioofthepolymerizationratesatanytwo
temperaturesis:
P(T1)=Poexp(-Q/RT1)=exp(-Q/R(1/T1-1/T2))
P(T2)Poexp(-Q/RT2)
P(T1)=exp[-Q/R((T2-T1)/T1T2))]=exp[-Q/R(T/T1T2)]
