Question: Question 1 . ( 5 0 pts ) The following irreversible elementary liquid phase reaction is taking place in a 0 . 0 1 m

Question 1.(50 pts) The following irreversible elementary
liquid phase reaction is taking place in a 0.01m3PFR which is
mounted with a heat exchanger.
2C4H4,C6H5CH=CH2
The feed at 400C contains only C4H4 and the concentration
of C4H4 in the feed is 1kmolm3 and the molar flow rate of it
is 300molmin. The heat capacities of C4H4 and C6H5CH=CH2
are 122Jmole.K and 244Jmole.K, respectively. The "Ua"
value for the heat exchanger is 5000Js*dm3K and the heat
exchanger fluid has a temperature of 425C. The heat of
reaction (Hrxn) and the rate constant (k) of the reaction are a
function of temperature according to the following
expressions:
Hrxn=-231000-12(T-25)J? mole where T is in C
k=1.48108exp(-19124T)dm3mole.s where T is in K
Determine the conversion of C4H4 that can be achieved in this
reactor.
