Question:

The elementary irreversible aqueous-phase reaction A + B → R + S is carried out isothermally as follows. Equal volumetric flow rates of two liquid streams are introduced into a 4-liter mixing tank. One stream contains 0.020 mol A/liter, the other 1.400 mol B/liter. The mixed stream is then passed through a 16-liter plug flow reactor. We find that some R is formed in the mixing tank, its concentration being 0.002 mol/liter. Assuming that the mixing tank acts as a mixed flow reactor, find the concentration of R at the exit of the plug flow reactor as well as the fraction of initial A that has been converted in the system.
