Which are the polynomials whose zeros include 0? Which are the polynomials whose real zeros are symmetrical to the origin? Which polynomials can have an even number of real zeros? Why?

is valid for the reactions + −H2 SO4 + SO2− + 2H = (A.9) or 2− + −2H2 SO4 + HSO− + SO4 + 3H = (A.10) as well Some linearly independent reaction pairs are (A.7) and (A.8); (A.8) and (A.9); (A.9) and (A.10) A.3 THE STOICHIOMETRIC MATRIX The stoichiometric matrix is used for the concise description of the stoichiometry of a given reaction system If the system contains N substances and R reactions, the stoichiometric matrix consists of N rows and R columns The ijth element of this matrix, νij , gives the stoichiometric coefficient of the ith substance in the jth reaction written as Eqn (A.5) Of course, we can assign a stoichiometric matrix to a given set of “traditional” reactions as well In this case we set νij < for the reactants, νij > for the products and νij = for the substances that not participate in the given reaction Using the indicated numbering the × stoichiometric matrix of the reaction system H2 SO4 (1) = H+ (4) + HSO− (2) [1] + + SO2− (3) HSO− = H [2] 4 containing proper chemical formulas is (1) (2) (3) (4) that is,  [1] −1 1 −1  S=  [2] −1 , 1  −1   1 APPNA.tex A.3 31/5/2006 17: Page 237 The Stoichiometric Matrix 237 However, we not need proper chemical formulas for the formal construction of a stoichiometric matrix An example of this is the reaction system B1 + 2B2 = B3 [1] B3 + B4 = B5 [2] 3B1 + 2B5 = B2 + 2B6 [3] According to the previous considerations the × stoichiometric matrix of this system is B1 B2 B3 B4 B5 B6 that is,  [1] −1 −2 0 [2] 0 −1 −1 −1  −2   −1 S=  −1   0 [3] −3 0, −2  −3 1  0  0  −2  APPNA.tex
