Suppose we have a first order reaction occurring in a CSTR
Let the reactions be AC and CD. These reactions happen at these rates:
r1=k1CA and r2=k2CC.
Assume ideal mixing, steady state condition with closed boundary. Assume a constant
volume V, and volumetric flow rate v into a CSTR, and steady state. It is convenient to define
=Vv, where is the theoretical residence time. The initial concentration of the reactant A=
2.2molL. The residence time, is 2.5min. The rate constants are given as k1=2.31min and k2
=4.51min. Find the final concentrations of A,C, and D.
