Sample Questions for Exam II

Examples of Types of Exam Questions

A. Homework or Study Question Problem Revisited

1. P8-5_B How would your answer change if the stirring speed were increased by 50%?
2. P8-9_B What would the temperature profile look like if Ua/ρ_b=500?

B. Questions Similar to those given in Class Problems

1. Adding inerts will always increase the conversion for a first order reaction for a fixed total molar flow rate.
                                                                                                                           T             F
2. The conversion will always increase when inerts are added for a zero order reaction for a fixed mole fraction of A entering the reactor.
                                                                                                                           T             F

C. Questions on the CD Lectures, ICMs and Living Example Problems that are qualitative in nature

1. The temperature profile for the in lectures 17 and 18 is shown below.

   

   Sketch the profile if the molar flow rate were reduced (say by 25%)

D. Questions that demonstrate understanding the material in the text.

1. in deriving Eqn. (8-31) it was assumed the overall ΔC_P is zero
                                                                                                                           T             F
2. In example 8-7, changing the pipe diameter while keeping the total volume the same would not affect the answer to Case I but would affect the answer to Case II.
                                                                                                                           T             F
3. The number of oscillations shown in Figure E9-6.1 on p565 would increase significantly if the gain were increased by a factor of 10.
                                                                                                                           T             F

E. Synthesizing rate laws and mechanisms

1. Homogeneous Reactions (Ch. 7).
2. Heterogeneous Reactions (Ch. 10).

F. Write a question relating to problem _______, that requires critical thinking and explain why it is a question that requires critical thinking.

G. Study problems-paraphrased or otherwise.
