(a)
Interpretation:
The flow rate of the coolant at
Concept introduction:
The conversion, X can be defined as the moles of any species A that are reacted per mole of A fed in the reactor.
A batch reactor is a closed system with no continuous flow of reactants entering the system or products leaving the system while the reaction takes place.
In most batch reactors, the longer a reactant stays in the reactor, the more the reactant is converted to product until either equilibrium is reached or the reactant is exhausted. Consequently, in batch systems the conversion X is a function of the time the reactants spend in the reactor.
(b)
Interpretation:
The rate of solvent evaporation as function of time is to be stated. The flow rate of the solvent at the end of
