An air mixture containing 20% Ozone (Os) is fed to a plug flow reactor (PFR), with a total molar flow rate of 3 mol/min. Ozone in the air mixture is degraded to oxygen in the reactor. The temperature and the pressure in the reactor are 366 K and 1.5 atm, respectively. The degradation reaction is an elementary reaction and the reaction rate constant is 3 L/(mol-min). 20₁ → 30₂ a) Calculate the concentration of each component, and the volumetric flow rate in the feed. b) Derive the reaction rate law. c) Construct the stoichiometric table. d) Calculate the reactor volume required for 50% conversion of ozone. e) Calculate the concentration of each component, and volumetric flow rate at the exit of the reactor.
