Question
![Q2] The reaction AR + S is irreversible and first order. It is conducted in a PFR with 50 tubes,
each with 0.5 in diameter and 1.0 m of height. 200 kg/h of reactant A (MW-80 g/gmol) with 30%
inert is introduced at a pressure of 50 atm at 500°C. The output conversion is 80%. Calculate the
average residence time.](https://content.bartleby.com/qna-images/question/3c203001-0a72-4e59-b14e-9c81d7c6a20a/a6027b45-d35e-489c-a74d-4dc345cd9053/2qr9iys_thumbnail.jpeg)
