 Consider a cylindrical reactor that has one end fitted with a

frictionless piston attached to a spring (See figure below). The reaction A+B

Consider a cylindrical reactor that has one end fitted with a frictionless piston attached to a spring (See figure below). The reaction A+B + 8C With the rate expression -CA = MCCB is taking place in this type of reactor. Reaction occurs in here (a) Write the rate law solely as a function of conversion, numerically evaluating all possible symbols. (b) What is the conversion and rate of reaction when V = 6 dm3. [Ans.: X = 38.9% and --A = 6.37x10-5 mol.dms-!] Additional information: = Initial number of moles (t = 0): 1/3 A; 1/3 B and 1/3 inert Initial volume: 4.5 dm3. Value of k: 4x10-3 (dm/mol)2. s-1. The relationship between the volume of the reactor and pressure within the reactor is V = 0.1 P (V in dm3, P in atm). Temperature of system (considered constant): 60C
