The following parallel reactions take place in an isothermal, constant - volume CSTR: A , - 2 B , - r A 1 = k

The following parallel reactions take place in an isothermal, constant-volume CSTR:
A,-2B,-rA1=k1CA,k1=1.3min-1
A,,-rA2=k2CA,k2=0.4min-1
Pure A is fed to the reactor at a concentration of 250molL.
Determine the exit concentrations of species A,B, and C if 85% conversion of species A takes place under steady conditions. (Hint: You may want to find the residence time (, tau) to achieve the same conversion of A)
A.CA=37.50molL;CB=304.7
molL;CC=29.95molL
B.CA=27.50molL;CB=314.7molL;CC=39.95molL
C.CA=37.50molLA;CB=124.7molL;CC=39.95molL
D.CA=47.50molLA;CB=325.7molL;CC=39.95molL
E.CA=37.50molL;CB=324.7molL;CC=49.95molL
