For the CO2 absorption in NaOH problem in the text, examine the effects of (i) changing the partial pressure of CO2 and (ii) the concentration of the liquid-phase reactant. State the range of conditions under which the reaction is expected to take place under pseudo-first-order conditions. State the conditions under which the reaction can be treated as instantaneous. Find the conditions (partial pressure of CO2) for which the reaction becomes instantaneous. Find the rate under this condition. Find the conditions (partial pressure of CO2) for which reaction occurs under pseudofirst-order conditions, i.e., the interfacial concentration of B is nearly the same as the bulk concentration. Find the rate under this condition.
