the correct answer is 15.2
the correct answer is 15.2 The liquid phase reversible reaction RT is

The liquid phase reversible reaction RT is carried out in an ideal mixed flow reactor. The concentrations of R and T that enter the reactor are, respectively, 4.85 and 0 (zero) mol/L. The rate constant of the forward reaction is 7.28min 1, and the equilibrium constant, based on concentration, Kc, is 3 . What is the required reactor volume (in Liters, expressed to one decimal place) that is needed to achieve a conversion, X, that is 98% of the equilibrium conversion (i.e. X is 0.98Xe )? You may assume that the forward and reverse reactions are elementary, and the entering molar flowrate of pure R is 14.61mol/min. 15.2 margin of error +15%
