Question: For a given feed stream having C,, should we use a PFR or a MFR and should we use a high or low or some

For a given feed stream having C,, should we use a PFR or a MFR and should we use a high or low or some intermediate conversion level for the exit stream if we wish to maximize (p(SIA)? The reaction system isR 16 W/N\

where n,, n,, and n, are the reaction orders of reactions 1, 2, and 3.

(a) n1 = 1, n2 = 2, n3 = 3

(b) n1 = 2, n2 = 3, n3 = 1

(c) n1 = 3, n2 = 1, n3 = 2

R 16 W/N\" A T S, desired
