Consider the reversible reaction 2A B in a flow reactor. The feed is pure A with a concentration of 4.0 mol/dm3. The equilibrium conversion is 40%. Assume the reaction is elementary. a) Assuming that this is a liquid-phase reaction. Find K(C) the equilibrium constant. b) Assuming that this is a gas-phase reaction. Find K(C) the equilibrium constant. c) Assuming a gas-phase isothermal reaction with no pressure drop for k(A,f) = 2 (dm^3 (mol.s)) and K(C) = 0.5 (dm^3 /mol), find -rA as a function of conversion. d) Assume a constant-volume batch reactor and repeat part
