Transcribed Image Text:01: A liquid-phase reaction A+B
→ C takes place in a 10.0-liter continuous stirred-
tank reactor. The reactor may be considered perfectly mixed, so that the contents are
uniform and the concentrations of A and B in the product stream equal that inside the
tank. The tank is initially filled with a solution that contains 1.2 mol A/L, and the inlet
and outlet flows then begin.
0.15 L/s
10.0 mol A/L
rate of reaction = 0.01CACB (mol /L.s)
15 mol B/s
0.15 L/s
V = 10 L
CA(mol A/L)
CB(mol B/L)
1- Write a balance equation on species A, B and C in the tank and provide an initial
conditions.
2- Calculate conversion ratio of A , CA ,CB and Cc at the steady-state in the tank.
3- Calculate conversion ratio of A , CA ,CB and Cc after t in the tank.
