Elementary reversible liquid phase reaction is carried out in continuous flow reactors. Inert I and A are fed to the reactor. Volumetric flow rate is 27 dm3/min and FA0=20 mol/min. FI=20 mol/min. Feeding is done at 300 K. a. Calculate the equilibrium transformation that can be achieved under adiabatic conditions. b. What is the equilibrium transformation that can be achieved if a 4 m2 heat exchanger is placed inside the reactor? c. If a heat exchanger is placed after the adiabatic reactor and the temperature is cooled to 350 K and given to the second reactor, calculate the conversion that will be achieved at the exit from the second reactor. The heat exchanger temperature is constant and is 300 K.

= 30 , = 100 k=0.1/dak Kc = 50000 (300 ) CpA = 40 J/mol.K CpB = 40 J/mol.K CpI = 15 J/mol.K E = 50 kJ/mol U=900 J/m2 dak I would be very grateful if you could enumerate the solution steps.
