The following E(t) curve was obtained from a tracer test on a reactor.

The conversion predicted by the tanks-in-series model for the isothermal elementary reaction

A → B

was 50% at 300 K.

(a) If the temperature is to be raised 10 °C (E = 25,000 cal/mol) and the reaction carried out isothermally, what will be the conversion predicted by the maximum mixedness model? The T-I-S model?

(b) The elementary reactions

were carried out isothermally at 300 K in the same reactor. What is the concentration of B in the exit stream predicted by the maximum mixedness model?

(c) For the multiple reactions given in part (b), what is the conversion of A predicted by the dispersion model in an isothermal closed-closed system?
