Ppt 13 R1.2 Energy cycles in reactions.pptxNeera16
the ppt is on energy cycles in reactions and deal with Hess's law of constant heat summation where the law of conservation of mass is obeyed. The enthalpy change can be calculated no matter whatever path the reaction has taken place as long as reactants and products are same the enthalpy change can be determined. Thus if enthalpy change of reaction is to be calculated than we can use enthalpy of combustion and formation to calculate it.

These calculations involve tracking the flow rates and compositions of substances throughout a process, often using mass or mole balances.
Energy Balances:
Energy balances involve quantifying the energy inputs and outputs in a chemical process.
These calculations are crucial for understanding the heat transfer requirements, evaluating energy efficiency, and optimizing process conditions.
Reaction Kinetics:
Chemical reactions kinetics calculations focus on understanding the rates at which reactions occur and how they are influenced by various factors such as temperature, pressure, and catalysts.
These calculations help in determining the optimal reaction conditions and designing reactors for desired conversion rates.
Phase Equilibrium Calculations:
Phase equilibrium calculations deal with determining the distribution of components between different phases in a system, such as liquid-liquid or vapor-liquid equilibrium.
These calculations are essential for designing separation processes like distillation, extraction, and absorption.
Thermodynamic Calculations:
Thermodynamic calculations involve applying thermodynamic principles to predict the behavior of chemical systems.
These calculations include determining properties such as enthalpy, entropy, Gibbs free energy, and fugacity, which are crucial for process design and optimization.
Process Simulation:
Process simulation involves using computer software to model and simulate chemical processes.
These simulations allow engineers to predict process behavior under different operating conditions, optimize process parameters, and troubleshoot potential issues.

The atomic radius is the distance from the atomic nucleus to the outermost stable electron orbital in an atom that is at equilibrium. The atomic radius tends to decrease as one progresses across a period from left to right because the effective nuclear charge increases, thereby attracting the orbiting electrons and lessening the radius. The atomic radius usually increases while going down a group due to the addition of a new energy level (shell). However, diagonally, the number of electrons has a larger effect than the sizeable radiu

Palestine last event orientationfvgnh .pptxRaedMohamed3
An EFL lesson about the current events in Palestine. It is intended to be for intermediate students who wish to increase their listening skills through a short lesson in power point.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

2. Kinetics of Explosion Reaction
2H2 + O2 2H2O
Explosion reactions are the chain reactions in which the rate of one (or) more
steps increases suddenly in a very short period of time by means of chain branching
steps leading to explosion.

Example
The best example for explosion reaction is

4. Kinetics of Explosion Reaction
• Since OH and O radicals are rapidly consumed , the principal chain carrier is H atom, so that
the rate equation for the free-radical density n* is taken to be the same as that for [H] atoms.
i.e., 𝑑𝑛

𝑑𝑡

𝑑𝑡
--------(1)
= k0[H2] + k1 [H2][OH] + k3 [H2][O] – k2 [O2][H] – k4 [H] – k5 [H][O2][M]
--------(2)
• Since [O] and [OH] are lower than [H] , we can assume that [O] and [OH] are at steady-state
𝑑[𝑂𝐻]
𝑑𝑡
= k2 [O2][H] + k3 [H2][O] - k1 [H2][OH] = 0 ---------(3)
𝑑[𝑂]
𝑑𝑡
= k0[O2] + k2 [O2][H] - k3 [H2][O] = 0 ---------(4)
i.e., rate of formation of O radicals = rate of disappearance of O radicals
rate of formation of H radicals = rate of disappearance of H radicals
5. Kinetics of Explosion Reaction
• Rearranging equation (3) and (4) gives [OH] and [O]
[OH] =
k2 [O2][H] + k3 [H2][O]
k1 [H2]
---------(5)
[O] =
k0[O2] + k2 [O2][H]
k3 [H2]
---------(6)
• Substituting for [O] (i.e., equation 6 ) in equation 5 we get
[OH] =
2k2 [O2][H] + k0 [O2]
k1 [H2]
---------(7)
• Substitute equation (6) and (7) in (1) we get
𝑑𝑛
∗
𝑑𝑡
= k0[H2] + k1[H2]
2k2 [O2][H] + k0 [O2]
k1 [H2]
+ k3 [H2]
k0[O2] + k2 [O2][H]
k3 [H2]
- k2 [O2][H] −k4 [H] – k5 [H][O2][M]
6. Kinetics of Explosion Reaction
𝑑𝑛
∗
𝑑𝑡
= k0 ([H2] + 2[O2]) + 2k2 [O2] − (k4 + k5 [O2][M]) [H] --------(8)
Put
k0 ([H2] + 2[O2]) = W0
2k2 [O2] = f
(k4 + k5 [O2][M]) = g
[H] = n*
in equation (8), we get
𝑑𝑛
∗
𝑑𝑡
= W0 + (f - g) n* ---------(9)
Where
f = chain branching
g = chain termination
7. Kinetics of Explosion Reaction
• There are two possible conditions
1. g > f :
Termination exceeds branching so that O2 pressure is low and n* increases
linearly and reaches a steady state value. i.e., there is no explosion.
2. g < f :
Branching exceeds termination so that O2 pressure is high, the free- radical
concentration increases exponentially and the reaction velocity increases rapidly.
This is termed as an explosion.
8. Kinetics of Explosion Reaction
• The explosion boundary for the H2 – O2 reaction is the function of temperature and
pressure shown in the diagram
9. Kinetics of Explosion Reaction
Region I : The reaction is wall - recombination limited and proceeds to a steady - state
Region II : f begins to exceeds g, the branched chain reaction takes over and explosion
takes place
Region III : As the pressure is further increased, the explosion is quenched and another
regime of steady-state is encountered. Here kinetics are dominated by relatively
unreacted HO2 radicals.
At a still high pressure, the amount of heat liberated in the exothermic
steps of the mechanism becomes larger and can be conducted by thermal
transport processes so that the temperature rises. As a result, increases the
rates of initiation and provides heat for endothermic chain – branching
reactions leading to more heat release, resulting in a thermal explosion
Region IV :
