QUESTION 2
Question #2: (25 pts) The following parallel reactions take place in an isothermal, constant-volume CSTR:
A2B,r=k1CA,k1=1.3min-1
3AC,r=k2CA,k2=0.4min-1
Pure A is fed to the reactor at a concentration of 380molm3.
(a) Determine the residence time required to achieve 80% conversion of species A under steady conditions.
(b) Determine the exit concentrations of species A, B, and C from the CSTR.
(c) Calculate the overall conversion of species A(xA), the selectivity of B over C(SBC), and the yield of B on A(YB).
