Question: The gas - phase reaction A + 2 B - > 2 D a - is to be carried out in an isothermal plug -

The gas -phase reaction A+2B ->2D a- is to be carried out in an isothermal plug-flow reactor at 5 atm. The mole fractions of the feed streams are, dm/min and the rate law at 55\deg C is: -=k C'2 C in kmol/m3. Min (or in gmol/dm'.min) K=2.5 dm'/gmol. min' A=0.2, B=0.5, and inerts(I)=0.3. b- What are the expressions for the concentrations of A, B, and I (inerts) as a function of conversion at any point along the reactor c- How large must the plug-flow reactor be to achieve a conversion of 0.7, if the temperature in the reactor is uniform (55\deg C), the volumetric flow rate is 50
