Question: help on all please, especially on E and F show work 4B The exothermic reaction of stillbene (A) to form the economically important trospophene (B)
4B The exothermic reaction of stillbene (A) to form the economically important trospophene (B) and methane (C), i.e., AB+C was carried out adiabatically and the following data recorded: The entering molar flow rate of A was 300mol/min. (a) What are the PFR and CSTR volumes necessary to achieve 40% conversion? (VPFR=72dm3, (b) Over what range of conversions would the CSTR and PFR reactor volumes be identical? (c) What is the maximum conversion that can be achieved in a 105dm3 CSTR? (f) Plot the conversion and rate of reaction as a function of PFR reactor volume up to a volume of 100dm3
