A. Autocatalytic reactions are exemplified by microbial fermentation reactions
B. The slowest step has the greatest influence on the overall reaction rate in case of an
irreversible series reaction
C. The fractional conversion at any time is same for both the constant as well as the variable
volume system in case of an irreversible unimolecular type first order reaction

Pick out the wrong statement ?

A. ‘Hold back’ is defined as the fraction of material that stays longer than the mean residence time
B. Study of non-ideal flow reactor is done experimentally by stimulus-response technique
C. For studying a chemical reaction, it is desirable to monitor the reactants during initial stages
and the products during the final stages of reaction
D. A batch reactor cannot be used to study the kinetics of catalytic reaction
