A first-order heterogenous reaction A → B is carried out using a porous spherical catalyst. Assume isothermal conditions, and that intraphase diffusion controls the reaction rate. At a bulk A concentration of 0.3 mol L−1, the observed reaction rate in a 3 mm diameter catalyst particle is 0.2 mol s−1 L−1 catalyst volume. At a bulk A concentration of 0.1 mol L−1, the observed reaction rate, in mol s−1 L−1 catalyst volume, in a 6 mm diameter catalyst particle, is ______
A
0.011
B
0.033
C
0.022
D
0.005

Correct : d
