In considering chemical stability of a pharmaceutical, one musf evaluate the reaction order and reaction rate. The reaction order may be the overall order (the sum of the exponents of the concentration terms of fhe rate expression), or fhe order with respect to each reactant (the exponent of the individual concentration term in the rate expression). The reaction rate expression is a description of the drug concentration with respect to time. Most commonly, zero- and first-order reactions are encountered in pharmacy. 

The observant reader will notice that the rate of conversion of A is initially the same as the first-order process shown. However, as A and B decrease, the bimolecular reaction rate slows appreciably, and the decrease in A concentration tails off more slowly than the first-order process. As illustrated in the inset, however, when [Bo] = 10 X [Aq], the second-order and first-order reactions are virtually indistinguishable. In fact, plots of ln[Ao] versus time look virtually linear (/.c., pseudo-first-order) when [Bo] 3[Aq]. 

Equation (2.38) has a first-order sink and a zero-order source, which meets our criteria for an analytical solution to the diffusion equation. Ce is the concentration of C at equilibrium for the reaction. This technique of assuming that multiple reactions are zero-order and first-order reactions will be utilized in Example 2.9. 

Knowing the average mass transfer coefficient, the absorption rate referring to the total gas-liquid interface can be given for zero- and first-order reactions, respectively as follows (see also Eq. 7,9,12,14) ...

The Thiele modulus for spherical particles, and first-order reaction ... 

It is possible to combine the resistances of internal and external mass transfer through an overall effectiveness factor, for isothermal particles and first-order reaction. Two approaches can be applied. The general idea is that the catalyst can be divided into two parts its exterior surface and its interior surface. Therefore, the global reaction rates used here are per unit surface area of catalyst. 

Constant gas-phase concentration and first-order reaction in respect to gas reactant... 

After the investigation of hydrodynamics and mass transfer, the next step is the examination of the reactor model. For example, let us consider here the two-phase model with plug flow of gas in both bubble and emulsion phase and first-order reaction (see Section 3.8.3). The first step at this stage is to transform its equations to dimensionless forms. 

Depending on the relative gains and losses in internal rotation, the intramolecular reaction is favored entropically by up to 190 J/deg/mol (45 cal/deg/mol) or 55 to 59 kJ/mol (13 to 14 kcal/mol) at 25°C. Substituting 190 J/deg/mol (45 cal/deg/mol) into the exp (ASVR) term of equation 2.7 gives a factor of 6 X 109. Taking into account the difference in molecularity between the second-order and first-order reactions, this may be considered as the maximum effective concentration of a neighboring group, i.e., 6 X 109 M. In other words, for B in equation 2.22 to react with the same first-order rate constant as A B in equation 2.23, the concentration of A would have to be 6 X 109 M. 

Diffusion and first order reaction in a general multilayered membrane (with B. Bunow). Math. BioscL 26,157-174 (1975). 

Rajagopalan and Luss (1979) developed a theoretical model to predict the influence of pore properties on the demetallation activity and on the deactivation behavior. In this model the change in restricted diffusion with decreasing pore size was included. Catalysts with slab and spherical geometry composed of nonintersecting pores with uniform radius but variable pore lengths were assumed. The conservation equation for diffusion and first-order reaction in a single pore of radius rp is... 

Eq. (3.11) can be solved by substituting a suitable expression for rs. Let s solve the equation first for the simple cases of zero-order and first-order reactions, and for the Michaelis-Menten equation. 

With the assumptions of second-order deactivation and first-order reaction, the regimes are characterized as follows ([A]solid 0 = initial concentration of solid substrate, [A111ril = substrate solubility) ...

Storage Charts of time and temperature of storage are important to control the increased levels of degradedness [6], Shelf life is defined as the amount of time in storage that a product can maintain quality and is equivalent to the time taken to reach 90% of the composition claim or have 10% degradation. The availability of an expiration date is assumed under specified conditions of temperature. Based on zero- and first-order reaction calculations, Connors et al. [45] show the estimation methods to determine the shelf life of a drug product at temperatures different from the one specified under standard conditions. 

Nonisothermal Catalyst Pellets and First-order Reactions... 

Thus, in general, CFRF yields higher conversion for reaction orders greater than unity, while CPRF is the preferred direction for 0 < n < 1. For zeroth and first order reactions, there is no difference between conversions for the two flow directions to the order. 

If experiments show that the reaction rate is independent of reactant A, the reaction is called zero-order in A if the rate depends on the instantaneous value of A, the reaction is termed first-order in A if the rate depends on the instantaneous value of A2, the reaction is called second-order in A, and so on. In most explosion phenomena we will deal only with zero-order and First-order reactions. The rate equations for zero-order and first-order reactions are, respectively dA...

For a system of two opposing first-order reactions one would expect first-order behavior, as experimentally observed. In relaxation kinetics, however, even non-first-order reactions will exhibit first-order kinetics provided the perturbation of the system is small enough so that higher-order terms in x can be neglected. For a system of opposing second- and first-order reactions, Eq. 21,...
