Concentration profiles for the parallel reactions

Again here we consider the simplest reactions in a series given below. 

The rate equation for this reaction assuming first-order kinetics can be written as 

We know from the reaction Equation 3.32 that the total number of moles remains constant, therefore,

Figure 3.3 shows the concentration profile for the parallel reactions where ki = 10 time, k2 = I time, and Cao = 3 moles/volume.
