It is being considered that the following gas-phase reaction be carried out in a CSTR: A + 2B → 4C The reactor will be operated isobarically and isothermally. The rate law for the reaction is given as: (-r^)=k · CA•CB where, k = 8 L/mol-min at the operating temperature. %3D The total feed volumetric flow rate to the reactor at operating temperature and pressure is 10 L/min. The feed consists of A, B and an inert (I). The feed molar flow rates are FA0=FB0= 1 mol/s and F10=2 mol/s. Calculate the volume of reactor required to achieve 80% conversion
