Question 88

The concentration, CCC, of a reactant in a non-isothermal chemical process is modeled by the function C=ϕ(t)C = \phi(t)C=ϕ(t), where ttt is the time in seconds. It is known that the graph of CCC against ttt has a point of inflection at t=12t = 12t=12. Given that ϕ′(12)=a\phi'(12) = aϕ′(12)=a and ϕ′′(12)=b\phi''(12) = bϕ′′(12)=b, where aaa and bbb are constants,

identify which of the following statements must be true:

ϕ′(12)=0 \phi'(12) = 0 ϕ′(12)=0 ϕ′′(12)=0 \phi''(12) = 0 ϕ′′(12)=0 ϕ′(12)≠0 \phi'(12) \neq 0 ϕ′(12)=0 ϕ′′(12)>0 \phi''(12) > 0 ϕ′′(12)>0
