Question

The following elementary gas phase reaction

A+2B—>C+D

Feed is A/B= 1/3 mol A/I =4/1 (mole basis)

is to be carried out in an isothermal CSTR. Given that:

T=500C

P=5 atm

Ea=15500cal/gmol

A=1.5e4

K=A*exp^(-Ea/RT)

Qo= 100 L/s

Reactor volume= 20,000L

a) what are the exit molar flow rates? Fa, Fb, Fc, Fd, Fi

b) what is the exit volumetric flow rate Q?
