How to Calculate and Solve for Rate of Heterogeneous Reaction | Corrosion

Last Updated on March 9, 2021

The image above represents rate of heterogeneous reaction.

To compute for rate of heterogeneous reaction, two essential parameters are needed and these parameters are dn/dt and Amount of Material (n).

The formula for calculating rate of heterogeneous reaction:

V = ^dn/dt / _n

Where:

V = Rate of Heterogeneous Reaction
dn/dt = dn/dt
n = Amount of Material

Let’s solve an example;
Find the rate of heterogeneous reaction when the dn/dt is 36 and the amount of material is 12.

This implies that;

dn/dt = dn/dt = 36
n = Amount of Material = 12

V = ^dn/dt / _n
V = ²⁴ / ₁₂
V = 2

Therefore, the rate of heterogeneous reaction is 2.

Calculating the dn/dt when the Rate of Heterogeneous Reaction and the Amount of Material is Given.

dn/dt = V x n

Where;

dn/dt = dn/dt
V = Rate of Heterogeneous Reaction
n = Amount of Material

Let’s solve an example;
Find the dn/dt when the rate of heterogeneous reaction is 28 and the amount of material is 2.

This implies that;

V = Rate of Heterogeneous Reaction = 28
n = Amount of Material = 2

dn/dt = V x n
dn/dt = 28 x 2
dn/dt = 56

Therefore, the dn/dt is 56.

Calculating the Amount of Material when the Rate of Homogeneous Reaction and the dn/dt is Given.

n = ^dn/dt / _V

Where;

n = Amount of Material
V = Rate of Heterogeneous Reaction
dn/dt = dn/dt

Let’s solve an example;
Find the amount of material when the rate of heterogeneous reaction is 12 and the dn/dt is 36.

This implies that;

V = Rate of Heterogeneous Reaction = 12
dn/dt = dn/dt = 36

n = ^dn/dt / _V
n = ³⁶ / ₁₂
n = 3

Therefore, the amount of material is 3.
