2. A decomposition reaction (A +2P) takes place in a variable volume batch reactor in gas phase at 40°C and 303.39 kPa conditions and the following data are collected. The inititial molar percentage of the mixture was 85% A and 15% inert. 30 0.251 120 0.302 t, s 60 240 V, dm3 0.200 0.276 0.322 V a) Show that the irreversible second order rate model fits the data satisfactorily. FAo FP1 b) This reaction is going to be carried out in a flow system inorder to produce 1000 mol-P/h, at 40°C and 10 atm conditions, with 60%A and 40% inert at the inlet stream. If the desired conversion is 80%, which continuous reactor should be preferred (the decision should be supported with clear calculations for both possible systems) ?
