An exothermic reaction, A→2B, takes place adiabatically in a constant volume stirred-tank reactor (CSTR). This liquid reaction occurs at constant volume in a 4,000 L reactor. The reaction can be considered to be first order & irreversible with the rate constant given by k=2.4x 10¹5 e-20,000/T min¹ where T is given in °R. (a) Using the information below derive a transfer function relating the exit temperature T to the inlet concentration C... State all assumptions that you make.
