Aplug flow reactor (2 m2) processes an aqueous feed (100 liter/min) containing reactant a (cao 100 mmol/iter). this reaction is reversible and represented by: ta (0,04 min )ca- (0,01 min )c 2.1 2.2 2.3. find the equilibrium conversion find the actual conversion of a in the reactor we wish to achieve 97.5% of the equilibrium conversion by adding a cstr in series with the plug flow reactor. what volume must the cstr be in order to achieve this?

explanation:

metals have excess of electrons whereas non-metals have deficiency of electrons. thus, in order to gain stability metals easily donate their electrons to the non-metals.

for example, electronic configuration of sodium is and electronic configuration of phosphorous is .

when a phosphorous atom and sodium atom combine together then sodium will donate is extra one electron to the phosphorous atom. as a result there will be formation of ionic bond between sodium and phosphorous.

the reaction will be as follows.

there, are three sodium sodium atoms and each of them will donate its one extra electron to phosphorous atom. thus, the sub-shell of phosphorous gets completely filled.  

thus, we can conclude that electrons are transferred from atoms of sodium to atoms of phosphorous. this transfer makes the sodium atoms donate one electron and the phosphorous atoms to gain one electron. as a result, the sodium and phosphorus atoms strongly attract each other.
