The elementary liquid-phase reactions

are carried out adiabatically in a 10 dm ³ PFR. After streams A and B mix, species A enters the reactor at a concentration of C _A0 = 2 mol/dm ³ and species B at a concentration of 4 mol/dm ³ . The entering volumetric flow rate is 10 dm ³ /s.

Assuming you could vary the entering temperature between 300 K and 600 K, what entering temperture would you recommend to maximize the concentration of species C exiting the reactor? (±25°K). Assume all species have the same density.
