note: do not use excel. please show all the necessary steps/solutions. thank you.....

A fluidized bed CSTR is used to perform the following homogenous gas
phase reaction:
A + B → C
The reaction is elementary and is first order in both A and B. Equimolar feed
is used in the reactor with
L
Vo = 100-
'min'
Po = 3 atm, T = 500 K,
mol
kg cat - min atm²
and k = 0.15;
The reactor is operated at constant temperature and pressure. Moreover, the
system behaves as an ideal gas. Calculate the weight of the catalyst required
to achieve 90% conversion of A.
