1. (100 points) The following reactions are taking place in an adiabatic CSTR. BH30;k3;EA3,A3D [Reactions follow elementary rate law] A1=A2=A3=1s1EA/R=250K;E2/R=150K and EA/R=200K. A enters the system at T0=300K at a molar flow rate of 20mol/s and a concentration of 40mol/m3. (a.) (40 points) If the CSTR volume is 0.5m3 and the exit temperature is 373K, find the concentrations of A and B(CA and CB). CPQ=120J/molK (b.) (30 points) Find the expression you would need to solve to find the exit Temperature for the CSTR. Express your equation in terms of f(T)=0. Assume CSTR volume =0.4m3. (c.) (30 points) Find a new f(T) with H10(TR)=5KJ/ mol but H20(TE)=H30(TE)=0KJ/mol. Find the approximate range in which the exit temperature T lies. This you can do this using f(T). Change the value of T and find when the sign of f(T) changes from either positive value to negative or from negative value to positive. When f(T) changes sign it crosses through zero (f(T)=0). This will give you the range in which T is. I would suggest find f(290),f(300),f(310) and f(320) and see when the sign changes
