a) The pasteurisation of milk occurs according to the first order reaction AR, with -rA
=0.1CAmol? litre.s where k=0.1min-1 at a temperature of 60deg C. For a 5000L
stirred batch vessel and a starting concentration CA0 of 0.1molL, using Eulers
method with an appropriate time step, calculate the time needed for 99.9%
conversion.
b) This reaction is known to have an activation energy of 300kJmol. Calculate the rate
constant k at 70degC.
c) Calculate the time needed for 99.9% conversion at 70degC.
