A liquid phase chemical reaction (A → B) takes place in a well-stirred tank. The concentration of compound A in the feed is CA0 (mol/m3 ), and that in the outlet stream is CA (mol/m3 ). Neither concentration varies with time. The volume of the tank contents is V (m3) and the volumetric flow rate of the inlet and outlet streams is Ẇ (m3 /sec). The reaction rate (the rate at which A is consumed by reaction in the tank) is given by the expression r (mol A consumed/s) = kVCA wherek is a constant. (a) Is this process continuous, batch, or semi batch? Is ittransient or steady - state?(b) What would you expect the reactant concentrationCA to equal if k = 0 (no reaction) ? What should itapproach if k [infinity] ( infinitely rapid reaction) ?(c) Write a differential balance on A, starting which terms inthe general balance equation ( accumulation = input + generation -output - consumption) you discarded and why you discarded them. Usethe balance to derive the following relation between the inlet andoutlet reactant concentrations :CA = CA0 / (1 + kV/ ). Verify that this relation predicts the results in part(b).
