Chapter 8: Multiple Reactions
Additional Homework Problems
CDP8-DB
Two gas-phase reactions are occurring in a plug-flow tubular reactor, which
is operated isothermally at a temperature of 440 and a pressure of 5 atm. The first reaction is first-order:
A B
and the second reaction is zero-order:
C D+E
The feed, which is equimolar in A and C, enters at a flow rate of 10 lb
mol/s. What reactor volume is required for a 50% conversion of A to B?
(ans.: V=105 )
