Question: Consider the gas - phase reactions: A 2 B , H R 1 = - 1 0 , 0 0 0 c a l m

Consider the gas-phase reactions:
A2B,HR1=-10,000calmolA
A+2BC,HR2=+5000calmolA
which take place in an adiabatic 200L PFR. Pure A is fed to the reactor at 323K with a
molar flow rate of 100molmin and a concentration of 0.5molL.
a) At what volume in the reactor is the temperature a maximum?
b) At what volume is the concentration of B a maximum?
Additional information:
CPA=50calmol-K,
CPB=25calmol-K,
CPC=100calmol-K,
