The homogeneous gas reaction 2A ---> 3R follows second-order kinetics. For a feed rate of 4m3/hr of pure A at 5 atm and 350oC, an experimental reactor consisting of a 2.5 cm ID pipe 2 m long gives 65% conversion of feed. A commercial plant is to treat 310 m3/hr of feed consisting of 50% A, 50% inerts at 25 atm and 350 degrees C to obtain 80% conversion. Assume plug flow in the pipe, negligible pressure drop, and ideal...

Question 10 The gas phase reaction 2A →B + C is carried out isothermally in a 30 dm3 well-mixed constant volume batch reactor. Pure A at an initial amount of 66.3 moles/dm3is placed into the reactor. If the rate of destruction of A is given by –rA = kCA, with k = 0.08 min-1, determine the concentration of A (in moles/dm3) after 5 minutes. Note that concentration is moles divided by volume. Express your answer to one decimal place.
