Question
A   --->   U   second order liquid reaction will be carried out to produce U in a reactor with 80% conversation. Reaction will start with a 4 m3solution which has 2.3 mol/L concentration of A.

If this reactor to be thermally insulated will be operated isentalpically and the mixture temperature of the reaction will be initially set as T0 = 340 K;
I. Find the required reaction time

 

Infos:

1) Reaction velocity model:
-rA = 8.8x108exp(-15500/RT) CA2; mol/ L st
(R=1.987 cal/mol K)
 
2) Reaction enthalpy:
- DH = 12,000 cal/mol
 
3) Heat-transfer coefficient for reactor with jacket:
U =130 cal/dm2 min oC
 
4) Average physical properties for reaction’s mixture:
CP =0.95 cal/g oC

                                                                                           r=1.02 g/cm3
