(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The model for a second-order reaction that takes place in a real reactor is to be proposed and the values of the model parameters, α and β are to be stated.

Concept introduction:

Real reactor is defined as the process vessel which is used to perform a chemical reaction. It is modeled by various combinations of ideal reactors. The conversion, X can be defined as the moles of any species A that are reacted per mole of A fed in the reactor.

The full form of CSTR is Continuous-Stirred Tank Reactor. This reaction has its application in the industrial processes. This reactor actually used for liquid-phase reactions.

The full form of PFR is Plug-Flow Reactor which consists of a cylindrical pipe and it is used for the gas-phase reactions. It is also known as tubular reactor.

(b)

(c)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

An explanation regarding the changes in model and conversion is to be stated if the outlet tracer concentration was as follows:

For t10min, then CT=0.

For t10min, then CT=5+10(1e0.2(t10)).

Electronic devices found in integrated circuits are composed of very high purity silicon to which has been added small and very controlled concentrations of elements found in Groups IIIA and VA of the periodic table. For Si that has had added 9.1 × 1021 atoms per cubic meter of antimony compute (a) the weight percent and (b) the atom percent of Sb present. (Hint: use Equation 100 C₁ = 1 + NAP2 N1A₁ P2 P1 (a) 0.00636 %wt (b) i 0.0182 %at
