can you help me just proposing the following problem P3-17(Fogler 4ta ed) but following the steps of example 4-1(Fogler 4ta ed) i put the image below to calculate how long it takes to achieve the desired conversion. THANK YOU
P3-17 B Consider a cylindrical batch reactor that has one end fitted with a frictionless piston attached to a spring (Figure P3-17). The reaction: A + B =8C
with the rate expression
-rA=k1CA2CB
is taking place in this type of reactor.
(a) Write the rate law solely as a function of conversion, numerically evaluating all possible symbols. Ans.: -rA=5.0310-9[(1-x)3(1+3x)32] lbmolft3*s.)
(b) What is the conversion and rate of reaction when V=0.2ft3?(Ans.: x=0.259,-rA=8.6310-10lbmolft3*s.)
Additional information:
Equal moles of A and B are present at t=0
Initial volume: 0.15ft3
Value of k1:1.0(ft3lbmol)2*s-1
The relationship between the volume of the reactor and pressure within the reactor is
V=(0.1)(P),(Vinft3,Pin atm )
Temperature of system (considered constant): 140F
Gas constant: 0.73ft3*atmlbmol*R
