Question: The elementary irreversible gas reaction A ( g ) + B ( g ) > C ( g , l ) is carried out isothermally

The elementary irreversible gas reaction A(g)+ B(g)>C(g,l) is carried out isothermally in a PFR in which pressure drop is negligible. As the reaction proceeds the partial prossure of C builds up until a point is reached at which C begins to condense when vapor pressure of C is 0.4atm. For an equal molar feed of A+B with no inerts and no other species entering the system, determine reaction rate at the onset of condensation.
Given, CAO 0.02moldm3
Total pressure at entrance -2 atm
 The elementary irreversible gas reaction A(g)+ B(g)>C(g,l) is carried out isothermally
