[ OL 8 . 2 1 Modified ] Chemical A reacts to form R , S and T according to the following reaction scheme. In

[OL 8.21 Modified] Chemical A reacts to form R, S and T according to the following reaction scheme. In this scheme, all reactions are first order:
Ak1Rk2S
darrk3
T
where k1=6h-1,k2=3h-1 and k3=1h-1.
If the feed is a solution containing A without any R, S and T:
1
(a) What reactor (type and size) should be used to maximise the yield of R? What is the product composition and (:cTcA0} from this reactor?
(b) What reactor (type and size) should be used to achieve 90% of the maximum yield of S?
