The ${\mathrm{NH}}_3$ decomposition reaction rates were measured on $\mathrm{Ru}/{\mathrm{Al}}_2{\mathrm{O}}_3$ in packed-bed reactor under differential conditions ${\mathrm{NH}}_3?0.5{\mathrm{N}}_2+1.5{\mathrm{H}}_2$ a) Fit the reaction order for ${\mathrm{NH}}_3$ at each temperature separately using linear regression. Assume for each temperature that this was the only data set you have. b) Use the rate at $\mathrm{C}?18?20\mathrm{mol}/{\mathrm{m}}^3$ at each temperature (highlighted data points) to fit Ea and the pre-exponential factor using linear regression. Assume $\mathrm{C}$ is constant for the purpose of this fit. c) Fit the reaction order for ${\mathrm{NH}}_3$, the pre-exponential factor and the activation energy (simultaneously) using non-linear regression. Note: you need to use all the data simultaneously. d) Compare solutions from a), b) and c), and if different, try to explain why.
