A first order gas phase reaction (AB) has a rate constant k(s1) given by: lnk=34.34T34222,TinK The reaction takes place in an adiabatic fixed bed reactor. Pure A (MW=58.0kg/kgmol) is introduced to the reactor at a rate of 8000kg/hr, the inlet temperature (Tv=1035K), and the pressure 162.0kPa.The material balance gives the design equation for a pseudo-homogeneous model as follows: V=vo0Xk(1X)(T/To)(1+X)dX Where v0 is the volumetric flow rate in m3/s and X is conversion. The relation between conversion and temperature (K) is obtained from the energy balance equation as follows: X=80770+6.8(T298)5.75103(T22982)1.27106(T32981)26.63(1035T)+0.0915(10352T2)15.29106(10353T3) Equation (2) can be solved numerically by Simpson's one-third rule as follows: V=vo(3Xw)[f1+4f2+2f3+4ft+f3] Xm=4(X2X1)+(X3X2)+(X4X3)+(X5X4) (a) FAe(gmol/s)= (b) Cdo(gmol/m3)= (c) ve(m3/s)= (d) Complete the following Table
