Question

Q7. The reaction $A \longrightarrow B$ is to be carried out isothermally in a CSTR. The entering flowrate is 10 dm³ h⁻¹ and it is constant. Calculate the reactor volume necessary to consume 99% of A when the entering molar flowrate is 5 mol h⁻¹, assuming the reaction rate is $-r_A = kC_A^2$ and $k=300$ dm³ mol⁻¹ h⁻¹. [660 dm³]

Step 1

Step 1: The design equation for a CSTR is given by: $V = \frac{F_{A0} X}{-r_A}$ where: $V$ is the reactor volume $F_{A0}$ is the entering molar flow rate of A $X$ is the conversion of A $-r_A$ is the reaction rate Show more…
