An acid-catalyzed irreversible liquid-phase reaction A B is carried out adiabatically in a CSTR. The reaction is second order in A. The feed is equimolar A and solvent (S, which contains catalyst), and enters the reactor at a total volumetric flow rate of 10 dm3/min at a concentration of A of 4 mol/L. The feed enters at 300 K. The product and reactant heat capacities are 15 cal/(mol°C), the solvent is 18 cal/(mol°C). The reaction rate constant at 300 K...

7. (15 pts.) A gas-phase reaction (A+B-C+D) is carried out in a packed bed reactor. When the particle size was decreased by 15 %, the conversion remained unchanged. When the particle size was decreased by 20%, the conversion decreased. When the original particle size was increased by 15 %, the conversion also decreased. In all cases, the temperature, the total catalyst weight, and all other conditions remained unchanged. Explain the observation.
