P2-4 (a) Revisit Examples 2-1 through 2-3. How would your answers change ifthe flow rate. FAG- were cut in half? If it were doubled?(b) Example 2-5. How would your answers change if the two CSTRS (one0.82 m³ and the other 3.2 m) were placed in parallel with the flow. Fodivided equally to each reactor.(c) Example 2-6. How would your answer change if the PFRs were placedin parallel with the flow, FA, divided equally to each reactor?(d) Example 2-7. (1) What would be the reactor volumes if the two interme-diate conversions were changed to 20% and 50%, respectively. (2) Whatwould be the conversions, X, X₁, and X. if all the reactors had the samevolume of 100 dm³ and were placed in the same order? (3) What is theworst possible way to arrange the two CSTRS and one PFR?(e) Example 2-8. The space time required to achieve 80% conversion in aCSTR is 5 h.
