14. A 500L reactor initially holds 200L of a solution containing A. "A" decomposes into "B" by the following equation: with the rate of A decomposition being given by: RA = -kCA where k is in min. Throughout this problem, the reactor is well-mixed and the concentrations of A and B are sufficiently low so that all solution densities are identical. Two streams flow into the reactor. Stream 1 (S1) contains 100 mmol/L of A and flows at 5.0 L/min. Stream 2 (S2) contains no A and flows at 1.0 L/min. Stream 3 (S3) flows out of the reactor at 6 L/min. Determine k if the steady-state concentration of A is 40mmol/L. A. 0.040 - 0.045 B. 0.035 - 0.040 C. 0.030 - 0.035 D. 0.025 - 0.030 E. 0.020 - 0.025
