Follow-up Question
Hi, I used this equation:
- k*V/v0 = -(1+e)*ln(1-XA) - e*xA
And got the answer 0.00279 m^3/sec.
Could you explain to me why the equation I've used is wrong as I've noticed it's slightly different to the one you have used.
Many Thanks

- Problem 4 The reversible, exothermic, liquid phase, homogeneous reaction A ₹R is being carried out in two ideal CSTRs. Both reactors operate at 150°C. The molar flow rate of A entering the first CSTR is 55,000 mol/h, the concentration of A in this stream is 6.5 mol/L, and the concentration of R is zero. The fractional conversion of A in the outlet stream from the second CSTR is 0.75. The fractional conversion is based on the molar flow rate entering the first CSTR. The reaction is first order in both directions. The rate constant for the forward reaction is 1.3 h-¹ and the equilibrium constant based on concentration at 150°C is 10.0. If the volume of the second CSTR is 10,000 L, what is the required volume of the first CSTR?arrow_forwardQUESTION IN IMAGEEarrow_forwardc32 plz answer allarrow_forward

The entering volumetric flow rate (v.) is 8 L/h. For a constant volumetric flow rate v = Do, then FA CAVO Also, CAO FAO/vo. Pure species A enters into the reactor at a rate of 4 mol/h.

- note: this is about chemical reaction engineering conversion and reactor sizing. show all the necessary steps and solutions. correct answer only pls. thank you. type the answer.arrow_forwardFor the gas-phase reaction A = 2B operated at 1.0 bar: Initially, the reactor contains only A, at 1.0 mol. a. Prove that the reaction coordinate (moles of A consumed) equals the following: (see attactched image) b. Make a plot of the reaction coordinate versus temperature between 200 and 400 K for exothermic reaction conditions, making use of the van’t Hoff Equation. Data: Ka = 5.0 at 298 K, ΔHrxn0 = -50.0 kJ mol-1. Neglect the ΔCp term. c. Repeat Part b for endothermic conditions. Ka = 5.0 at 298 K, ΔHrxn0 = +50.0 kJ mol-1. Neglect the ΔCp term. d. If the reaction described in part b (i.e., exothermic conditions) were operated in a simple batch reactor, would the reaction mixture’s temperature increase, decrease, or remain constant as the reaction progressed? To maximize conversion, would you recommend that heat be added to, or removed from, the reactor?arrow_forward
