b) The reaction is to be carried out isothermally in three different size mixed flow reactors (MFR) in series. The first reactor has a volume of 200 dm, the second reactor has a volume of 400 dm, while the reactor has a volume of 600 dm. Species A and B are fed in separate lines to the first MFR. The volumetric flow rate to the first MFR is 10 dm /min of A and 10 dm /min of B. Given; C:H = H2O = 2 mol/dm k= 0.025 dm/mol-min. (PO2, CO2, C4) i. Determine the steady state concentration of A from each reactor. ii. Determine the steady state conversion of A for each reactor.

Question
b) The reaction is to be carried out isothermally in three different size mixed flow reactors (MFR) in series. The first reactor has a volume of 200 dm, the second reactor has a volume of 400 dm, while the reactor has a volume of 600 dm?. Species A and B are fed in separate lines to the first MFR. The volumetric flow rate to the first MFR is 10 dm/min of A and 10 dm /min of B. Given; C2H4 = H2O = 2 mol/dm3 k = 0.025 dm/mol-min. (PO2, Co2, C4) i. Determine the steady state concentration of A from each reactor. ii. Determine the steady state conversion of A for each reactor.
