Q 2 . Consider a reactor with the result of a tracer test give below: C T ( t ) = 0 g L C

Q2. Consider a reactor with the result of a tracer test give below:
CT(t)=0gL
CT(t)=-30+4t-0.1t2gL
CT(t)=10gL
t10min
10=20min
The flowrate though the reactor for the test, and in normal operation, is 300Lmin. There is a
large excess of B and the reaction is effectively half order in A :
A(aq)+B(aq)2C(aq)rA=-kCA0.5 where k=0.25mol0.5L0.5*min
a) What is the residence time distribution function, E(t), for this reactor?
b) What is the volume of the reactor (in L)? Integrations to be completed step by step by
hand (i.e. don't integrate numerically!).
c) The reactor is fed with 9molL of A. Determine the conversion for this reactor.
Integrations to be completed numerically with code/spreadsheet attached.
