FIND THE CONCENTRATION OF REACTANT A IN EACH REACTOR USING MATRIX

5.2) This problem is adapted from Chapra and Canale (2005), studying a system of four insulated CSTRs in which an irreversible first-order reaction (A + B) takes place. A solution of reactant A in a concentration of 1 mol L feeds the first reactor at a flow rate of 10 L/h. There are recycles from reactor 3 to reactor 2 and from reactor 4 to reactor 3, with flow rates of 5 L/h and 3 L/h, respectively. 232 = 54h Qin=104h Q12 Q23 034 044 Cain - 1 mol/L 031 043=3/h The reactors have different volumes and operate at different temperatures. The table below shows the volume and the kinetic constant for each reactor. Reactor 1 2 3 4 V(L) 25 75 100 25 k (1/h) 0.075 0.15 0.4 0.1
