The exothermic reaction

was carried out adiabatically and the following data recorded:

The entering molar flow rate of A was 300 mol/min.

(a) What are the PFR and CSTR volumes necessary to achieve 40% conversion? (VPFR = 72 dm3 , VCSTR = 24 dm3)

---

(b) Over what range of conversions would the CSTR and PFR reactor volumes be identical?

---

(e) What is the maximum conversion that can be achieved in a 105-dm3 CSTR?

---

(d) What conversion can be achieved if a 72-dm3 PFR is followed in series by a 24-dm3 CSTR?

---

(e) What conversion can be achieved if a 24-dm3 CSTR is followed in a series by a 72-dm3 PFR?

---

(f) Plot the conversion and rate of reaction as a function of PFR reactor volume up to a volume of 100 dm3.
