Question 49
CHNAT2 marksNeeds review
The following gas-phase reaction is carried out in a constant-volume isothermal batch reactor
The reactants A and B as well as the product S are non-condensable gases. At the operating temperature, the saturation pressure of the product R is 40 kPa.
Initially, the batch reactor contains equimolar amounts of A and B (and no products) at a total pressure of 100 kPa. The initial concentrations of the reactants are
. The rate of reaction is given by
.
The time at which R just starts condensing, rounded to 1 decimal place, is ________ s.Log in to check the answer
