The gas phase reactions take place isothermally in a membrane reactor packed with catalyst. Pure A enters the reactor at 24.6 atm and 500 K, and a flow rate of A of 10 mol/min. A ⇌ B+C r'_{1C}=k_{1C} [C_A - (C_B C_C / K_{1C})] A → D r'_{2D}=k_{2D} C_A 2C+D → 2E r'_{3E}=k_{3E} C_C^2 C_D Only species B diffuses out of the reactor through the membrane. Additional information: k_{1C} = 2.0 dm^3 / kg - cat · min, k_{3E} = 5.0 dm^3 / mol^2 · kg - cat · min K_{1C} = 0.2 mol / dm^3, W_{final} = 100 kg k_{2D} = 0.4 dm^3 / kg - cat · min, α = 0.008 kg^{-1} Overall mass-transfer coefficient k_c = 1.0 dm^3 / kg - cat · min (a) Formulate the differential equations using the algorithms for a membrane reactor and for multiple reactions. Plot and analyze the concentrations for all species and the rates for the three reactions down the length of the reactor as a function of catalyst mass, W. Your answer should include the complete differential equations and the plots of the concentrations. (25 points) (b) Explain why your curves look the way they do (5 points)

00:01 From the given data, isothermal gas phase reaction are as follows.
00:05 So, a to get b plus c, where r is equal to k, multiply with ca minus c b c b c c c, okay.
00:20 Now a 2d, gamma 2d, which is equal to k2d, ca.
00:27 Now 2c plus d to get 2e.
00:31 So gamma 3d which is equal to k3e.
00:36 Dot c cc square and cd, multiply with cd...
