A really important chemical (D) is produced from available feedstock (A) in liquid phase reaction. At reaction conditions, A also degrades into undesirable impurity (U). The reactions are given as: A D rD = k1C 2 A A U rU = k2CA The reaction is carried out in two CSTRs with residence times of 2.5 min and 10 min respectively connected in series. The feed to the first reactor contains A and U with concentrations of CA0= 1.0, and CU0 = 0.3 (units are not important). At the end of first reactor, following composition is obtained: CA1 = 0.4 CD1 = 0.2 CU1 = 0.7 Find the composition leaving the second reactor.
