A ->B homogeneous liquid phase reaction first two equal volumes of CSTRs connected in series, it is then carried out in a reactor system consisting of a PFR. The volume of each CSTR is 5 L, and the volume of the PFR is 7 L. Only substance A is present in the feed stream, with an initial concentration of 2.0 mol/L and a volumetric flow rate of 3.0 L/min. where the reaction rate expression is rA=(0.40min-1)*CA ; a) Calculate the A and B concentrations in the currents leaving the 1st CSTR, 2nd CSTR and PFR b) Calculate the total conversion rate of A in the stream leaving the reactor system.
