![**C) Suppose by chance, the reaction is elementary with rate constant \( k_{N_2} = \frac{40 \, \text{dm}^3}{\text{mol} \cdot \text{s}} \). Write the rate of reaction solely as a function of conversion for (i) a flow reactor and (ii) a constant volume batch reactor.**
In this problem, you are asked to express the rate of reaction as a function of conversion for two types of reactors: a flow reactor and a constant volume batch reactor. The rate constant \( k_{N_2} \) is given as \( \frac{40 \, \text{dm}^3}{\text{mol} \cdot \text{s}} \), which indicates the reaction follows elementary kinetics.
### Explanation:
- **Flow Reactor:** This typically refers to a plug flow reactor (PFR) or continuous stirred-tank reactor (CSTR), where concentration continuously changes and is related to conversion \( X \). The design equation for flow reactors often comes in the form of:
\[
-r_A = \frac{F_{A0}}{V}X
\]
where \( -r_A \) is the rate of reaction, \( F_{A0} \) is the molar flow rate of the reactant \( A \), \( V \) is the reactor volume, and \( X \) is the conversion.
- **Constant Volume Batch Reactor:** In this setup, the volume of the reactor does not change as the reaction progresses. The rate of reaction is related to the change in concentration over time:
\[
-r_A = \frac{dC_A}{dt}
\]
Given the elementary nature of the reaction, expressions for \( C_A \) can be aligned to conversion \( X \).
Both these scenarios leverage the rate constant to model the system kinetics accurately. Understanding these concepts is crucial for chemical reaction engineering and reactor design.](https://content.bartleby.com/qna-images/question/d47fc2c3-8f4b-4085-b234-bc909be774e3/c500fde3-6589-40a4-a9cc-46cbe9ae959c/d678ulk_processed.png)
