Question: Consider the reaction A k B where - r A = k ( T ) C A 2 . The reaction takes place in an

Consider the reaction AkB where -rA=k(T)CA2. The reaction takes place
in an isobaric, adiabatic PFR with FA0=22mols,CA0=1.8M, and T0=180C.
k180C was experimentally determined to be 4.89*10-2M-1s-1, the enthalpy
change of reaction Hrxn,180C=+16kJmol, and the activation energy EA=
114.7kJmol. Additionally, there is a non-participating species C in the reaction
with C=0.6;
CPA=133JmolK and CPC=75.38JmolK.
Make a (computer generated) graph showing: a) the conversion xA down the
length of the reactor and b) the temperature down the length of the reactor up to
xA=0.5.
 Consider the reaction AkB where -rA=k(T)CA2. The reaction takes place in
