Show Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
Step 1: Define Each Phenomenon.
Coking involves the deposition of carbon materials, which fits with (II).
Poisoning is caused by the irreversible binding of molecules, fitting with (III).
Sintering occurs due to prolonged high temperatures, fitting with (I).
Step 2: Match to the Descriptions.
The matches have been verified based on standard definitions and typical catalyst behavior in industrial processes.

- Consider a vapour-liquid mixture of components A and B that obeys Raoult's law. The vapour pressure of A is half that of B. The vapour phase concentrations of A and B are 3 mol m\(^{-3}\) and 6 mol m\(^{-3}\), respectively. At equilibrium, the ratio of the liquid phase concentration of A to that of B is:
- Consider a binary mixture of components A and B at temperature \( T \) and pressure \( P \). Let \( \vec{V}_A \) and \( \vec{V}_B \) be the partial molar volumes of A and B, respectively. At a certain mole fraction of A, \( X_A \):
\[ \left( \frac{\partial \vec{V}_A}{\partial X_A} \right)_{T,P} = 22 \text{ cm}^3 \text{ mol}^{-1} \quad \text{and} \quad \left( \frac{\partial \vec{V}_B}{\partial X_A} \right)_{T,P} = -18 \text{ cm}^3 \text{ mol}^{-1} \]
The value of \( X_A \), rounded off to 2 decimal places, is ____. - The Newton-Raphson method is used to solve \( f(x) = 0 \), where \( f(x) = e^x - 5x \). Starting with an initial guess \( x^{(0)} = 1.0 \), the value of the next iterate \( x^{(1)} \), rounded off to 2 decimal places, is _____
- An isolated system consists of two perfectly sealed cuboidal compartments A and B separated by a movable rigid wall of cross-sectional area 0.1 m\(^2\) as shown in the figure. Initially, the movable wall is held in place by latches L1 and L2 such that the volume of compartment A is 0.1 m\(^3\). Compartment A contains a monoatomic ideal gas at 5 bar and 400 K. Compartment B is perfectly evacuated and contains a massless Hookean spring of force constant 0.3 N m\(^{-1}\) at its equilibrium length (stored elastic energy is zero). The latches L1 and L2 are released, the wall moves to the right by 0.2 m, where it is held at the new position by latches L3 and L4. Assume all the walls and latches are massless. The final equilibrium temperature of the gas in compartment A, in K, rounded off to 1 decimal place, is ______.
- Ethylene obeys the truncated virial equation-of-state \( \frac{PV}{RT} = 1 + \frac{BP}{RT} \) where \( P \) is the pressure, \( V \) is the molar volume, \( T \) is the absolute temperature, and \( B \) is the second virial coefficient. The universal gas constant \( R = 83.14 \) bar cm\(^3\) mol\(^{-1}\) K\(^{-1}\). At 340 K, the slope of the compressibility factor (\( Z \)) vs. pressure curve is \( -3.538 \times 10^{-3} \) bar\(^{-1}\). Let \( G_R \) denote the molar residual Gibbs free energy. At these conditions, the value of \( \left( \frac{\partial G_R}{\partial P} \right)_T \), in cm\(^3\) mol\(^{-1}\), rounded off to 1 decimal place, is _____.

- A zero-order gas phase reaction \(A \to B\) with rate \((-r_A) = k = 100\) mol/(L min) is carried out in a mixed flow reactor of volume 1 L. Pure \(A\) is fed to the reactor at a rate of 1 mol/min. At time \(t = 0\), the outlet flow is stopped while the inlet flow rate and reactor temperature remain unchanged. Assume that the reactor was operating under steady state before the flow was stopped (\(t<0\)). The rate of consumption of \(A\), \(-\frac{dC_A}{dt}\), in mol/(L min), at \(t = 1\) min is:
