In a batch reactor, reactant A is steadily converted into product B. The initialconcentration of reactant A is 100 mg/L. During a 10-hour reaction course, it wasobserved that the concentration of A in the reactor decreased at a constant rate of 10mg/L per hour. Based on the result, you can determine that the transformation reactionA→B follows ( ) with respect to reactant A.
I need help with this problem. I want to see detailed steps.
The gas phase decomposition of sulfuryl chloride SO₂Cl₂ → SO₂ + Cl₂ follows a first-order law. The reaction is carried out in a constant volume (V) isothermal batch reactor. For the first-order reaction, the rate r = kC₁, where C₁ (mol/liter) is the concentration of sulfuryl. And k = 3.5(e-3) min (3.1) Use the mass balance (for transient processes) to find the equation for depletion of C₁ (t) as a function of time (t). (3.2) Solve this ordinary differential equation for C₁ at t = 4 minute, using the initial condition: at t=0, C₁ (0) = 0.0284 mol/liter.
