2.An autocatalytic ((iquid) phase reaction is to be carried out in aqueous solution in a mixedflow reactor connected to a plug-flow reactor in series. The first mixed flow reactor will operate at the maximum reaction rate. The reaction stoichiometry and rate expression are given betow.
If the system is to operate at 50C under isothermal conditions, determine the minimum reactor volume (VMFR+VPFR) to achieve 80% total conversion? The feed rate of A to the first reactor is 0.3molesec and the initial concentration of A in the feed stream is 2kmolm3.
 2.An autocatalytic ((iquid) phase reaction is to be carried out in
