8033. A first order gaseous phase reaction is catalysed by a non-porous solid. The kinetic rate constant and the external mass transfer co-efficients are k and kg respectively. The effective rate constant (keff) is given by

keff = k + kg
keff = (k+ kg)/2
keff = (kkg)1/2
1/keff = 1/k + 1/kg
✅ The correct answer is option D.
