Question: Q 3 ( 1 3 pts ) 1 + x The elementary gas phase reaction T = 5 0 0 K P = P 0

Q3(13 pts)
1+x
The elementary gas phase reaction
T=500K
P=P0=16.4atm
2A+BC
equal moler =0.5)
is carried out isothermally at 500K in a flow reactor. The pressure is constant, (i.e. no pressure drop) at 16.4atm and the feed is equal molar in A and B. The specific reaction rate is
A=10dm6mol2*sec.
(a) Calculate the PFR and CSTR volumes and space times necessary to achieve 90% conversion for a molar feed rate of A of 5molsec.
Show your analytical integration steps very clearly. R=0.082dm3atmmolK
(b) Plot the reaction rate, conversion, and concentrations along the length (i.e. volume) of a PFR.
