Liquid reaction A->2B is taking place in a steady state packed bed reactor that has total available packing area (A) of 20 m2. The density (p) and packing surface (a) of the catalyst per volume are 0.81 g/cm3 and 100 cm2/cm3, respectively. The volumetric flow rates in and out are equivalent at 10.5 L/min. With a rate law of- r, A-kCA2 (k = 0.020 L2/(mol* min* g of catalyst)) and a feed in molar flowrate (FAo) of 5 mol/min, what percentage of the initial feed of chemical A exits the reactor? Hint: the mass of the catalyst in the reactor (W) is related to the packing area (A) by W p*Aa. Please express the percentage that exits the reactor to one decimal place.

the correct answer is b. a strong acid completely dissociates to its ions when dissolved in water. completely dissociates to and ions. a is incorrect because does not fully ionize to and ions and some remain as the compound . c and d are incorrect because, and do not fall into the category of bronsted lowry acids. a bronsted lowry acid is a proton donor and since both molecules do not have a proton to donate they are not bronsted lowry acids. likewise,   if we use the lewis acid definition, they cannot be acids. a lewis acid is an electron pair acceptor. both and have a complete octet so can not accept any electrons which disqualifies them as acids.
