Under acidic conditions (such as in your stomach) benzyl penicillin (BP) breaks down to three products which we will call A, B, and C in a parallel reaction with the following A BP B values for the rate constants: k, = 7.0 × 10-4 sec-1; ks = 4.1 x 10-3 sec-1; and ke = 5.7 x 10-3 sec-1. What is the yield of product A? In other words, after the reaction has reached completion what fraction of the product is present as compound-A?
