 The irreversible, elementary liquid-phase reaction 2AB is carried out adiabatically in

The irreversible, elementary liquid-phase reaction 2AB is carried out adiabatically in a flow reactor with WS=0 and without a pressure drop. The feed contains equal molar amounts of A and an inert liquid (I). The feed enters the reactor at 294K with v0=6dm3/s and CA0=1.25mol/dm3. 1. What would be the temperature inside of a steady-state CSTR that achieved XA=0.9 ? 2. What would be volume of the steady-state CSTR that achieves XA=0.9 ? 3. Use the 5-point rule to numerically calculate the PFR volume required to achieve XA=0.9 ? 4. Use the energy balance to construct table of T as a function of XA 5. For each XA, calculate k,rA and FA/rA 6. Make a plot of FA/rA as a function of XA.
