Integral Analysis
A rate law is proposed and integrated to predict the time
course of concentration (or some functions of concentration),
which is then compared with the experimental response.
Any reactor type can be used but for the convenience of
analysis, a constant density system is preferred.

Notes:
For n > 1, the reaction can never reach completion (cA = 0)
in a finite time
For n < 1, cA=0 occurs at a finite time and cA becomes
negative thereafter. Since concentration can never fall
below zero,
Reactions with order less than one cannot prevail
over a wide concentration range
Reaction order shifts up as concentration falls

which is a function of cA0
19
For any n, plot of ln t1/2 vs ln cA0 will produce a straight line with
slope (1-n)
For first order reactions, the above expression may be
differentiated with respect to n using the LHopitals rule
ln 2
t1/ 2 =
k
t1/2 in this case is independent of cA0
Half-life measurements need not be conducted using different
initial concentrations if the reaction is irreversible. Any point
on a concentration-time curve can be used as the starting
concentration
Other fractional life expressions can be derived likewise

From reaction stoichiometry cA + cR = constant
c A + cR = c Ae + cR e or c A c Ae = cR e cR

The equation collapses to (irreversible) first order kinetics if
we let K and cAe 0
For reversible reactions of higher orders, the integral
analysis is similar but the mathematics becomes more
involved. Some results are shown on p.58 of Levenspiel
