A gas$-$phase decomposition of component A is a Question $1$

A gas$-$phase decomposition of component $A$ is a first order

reaction

$2AB+2C$;$r_A=k{C}_A[mol{s}^{-1}{m}^{-3}],k=0\mathrm{.}003s^{-1}$

The pure $A$ is fed at a volumetric flow rate of $6d{m}^3{s}^{-1}$ to a tubular

PFR reactor. The reactor operates at a pressure of $2$ bar and

temperature of $a50C.$

$($a$)$ What is concentration of component $A$ at the entry

point?

$[4$ marks$]$

$($b$)$ What is the volumetric flow rate of the stream exiting

reactor in the case of $90\%$ conversion?

$[6$ marks$]$

$($c$)$ Calculate reactor volume to reach $90\%$ conversion.

$[15$ marks$]$

reaction

$2$A$->$B$+2$C;r$\_($A$)=$kC$\_($A$)[$mols$^(-1)$m$^(-3)],$k$=0\mathrm{.}003$s$^(-1)$

The pure A is fed at a volumetric flow rate of $6$dm$^(3)$s$^(-1)$ to a tubular

PFR reactor. The reactor operates at a pressure of $2$ bar and

temperature of a$50\backslash$deg C$.$
