A milk sample deteriorates following the first order reaction kinetics.
a) It deteriorates 40 times faster at 250C than when it is stored at 40C. Calculate the activation energy in kJ for the milk breakdown reaction.
a) Find the rate constant if 80% of the milk deteriorates after 12 hours at 250C.

The isothermal reaction of A to B is a first order reaction in A. A 5,000 liter plug flow reactor is fed with A at concentration of 4 gmol/liter and volumetric flow of 800 L/min. At these conditions the conversion of A is 95%. We have two CSTRs that are 2000 and 7000 liters and can be place in series to replace the PFR. a. Can the two CSTR’s in series provide 95% conversion in replacement of the PFR? Select...
