 The elementary gas phase reaction, in which pure Reactant A forms

The elementary gas phase reaction, in which pure Reactant A forms Product B and Product C, takes place at isobaric and isothermal conditions. The reaction rate constant has the unit of h1 and can be calculated via Arrhenius Equation. Reactant A is fed to a 500L continuous stirred tank reactor, with an initial molar flow rate of 2kmol/h. The inlet pressure is 3atm and the inlet temperature is 730K. The pressure inside the reactor is constant at 3 atm. Taking Ea as 159kJ/mol and k0 as 9.51013, answer the following questions. a) Create the stoichiometric table for this reaction. b) Calculate the conversion and the volumetric flow rate at the exit of the reactor
