Question: A batch reactor contains a liquid solution with reagent A at a concentration of 1 mol / liter at an initial temperature of 2 5

A batch reactor contains a liquid solution with reagent A at a concentration of 1 mol/liter at an initial temperature of 25C. In adiabatic operation of the reactor, what is the time needed to get 60% conversion. The first order reaction, the density and heat capacity throughout the reaction are constant and uniform with values 0.95 cal/g C and 1.08 gr/cm3. Heat of reaction can be assumed independent of temperature
(-Hrxn)=30 kcal/mol The dependence of the kinetic constant of the process
k=5.105exp(-10000/RT)(min-1)
