Question \#4 (10 points) Consider the elementary reaction AB that takes place in two plug flow reactors connected in parallel followed by a CSTR. All reactors are operated isothermally at 500K. The fresh feed to the PFRs is pure A. The initial molar feed flow rate and concentration are 20mol/s and 2mol/m3.35% of the fresh feed passes to the 1st PFR that has a volume of 4m3. The remaining feed passes to the 2nd PFR that has a volume of 6m3. The streams exiting the PFRs are mixed and fed to the CSTR. The rate constant is 30min1 (a) 500K. Calculate the overall conversion of A exiting the CSTR if its volume is 14m3
