Attempt All Questions Q1] A gas phase reaction A + B R is carried out in a CSTR and PFR separately at a rate of 100 mol/min where the temperature is constant at 150°C and the pressure is 10 atm. The reactant B is three times more than A in the feed reactor. The rate constant is given by: T Vekcp Ink= -5400 T + 12.5 (min-1) If the average residence time in the PFR is 3 min and assuming equal values of conversion on outputs of each reactor, find the volumes and molar flow for both reactors, compare them.
