Question: The reversible gas phase decomposition reaction, A 2 D is being carried out at a constant temperature and pressure of 6 7 C and 2

The reversible gas phase decomposition reaction,
A2D
is being carried out at a constant temperature and pressure of
67C and 202.6kPa respectively. The feed consists of pure A
and the concentration equilibrium constant, Kc, at 67C is 0.1
mol L-1. The rate constant, kA is 0.5s-1 and the volumetric
flowrate to the reactor is 42Ls-1. The reactor conversion is 80%
of the equilibrium conversion
(a) Determine the CSTR volume necessary to achieve 80% of
the equilibrium conversion.
(b) Determine the FPR volume necessary to achieve 80% of
the equilibrium conversion.The reversible gas phase decomposition reaction, A2D is being carried out at a constant temperature and pressure of 67deg C and 202.6kPa respectively. The feed consists of pure A and the concentration equilibrium constant, Kc , at 67deg C is 0.1molL^(-1). Determine the CSTR volume necessary to achieve 80% of the equilibrium conversion. The rate constant, k_(A) is 0.5s^(-1) and the volumetric flowrate to the reactor is 42Ls^(-1)
