Using a value of CA0= 6 mol/liter, prepare a plot of conversion Vs. ktau, for a first-order reaction and a second-order reactionconducted in a CSTR
First, derive an expression for X = f(ktau)and then make the graph.
The graph should cover a range from 0 to 0.95 for X and from 0
to 35 for
ktau. Find the k^tau value, at which the conversion becomes higher
for the
first-order reaction than for the second-order reaction.
(b) Explain in your own words why, for a given k tau, a higher
conversion is
reached for the second-order reaction at low conversions, while
the
opposite is true at high conversions.
