A liquid-phase isomerization is carried out in a 1000-gal CSTR that has a single impeller located halfway down the reactor. The

liquid enters at the top of the reactor and exits at the bottom. The reaction is second order. Experimental data taken in a batch reactor predicted the CSTR conversion should be 50%. However, the conversion measured in the actual CSTR was 57%.
A) Suggest reasons for the discrepancy and suggest something, e.g., a model, that would give closer agreement between the predicted and measured conversions. Back your suggestions with calculations. P.S. It was raining very hard that day.

Answer:

The conversion achieved for the first CSTR impeller is 0.382

Discrepancy = 0.188

Explanation:

The impeller divides the CSTR into 2 equal reactors of volume 500gal

Using V = FaoX/ (-ra)

500gal = Fao×Xa/[(KCao^2( 1 -X1)^2]

500gal = CaoVoX1/ KCao^2(1-X1)

500gal= 500gal × X1'/(1 - X1)^2

(1 -X1)^2 = X1

X1^2 - 3X1 + 1 = 0

X1= 0.382

Conversion achieved in the first CSTR is 0.382

Actual measured CSTR = 57% =57/100=0.57

Discrepancy in the conversions= 0.57 -0.383 =0.188

Answer:

Keep temperature constant and increase the pressure of the reaction. The rate of reaction increases.

Explanation:

First of all, the question is asking us to design an experiment to investigate the effect of pressure on the rate of reaction hence the pressure can not be held constant since it is the variable under investigation. This eliminates the first option.

Secondly, increasing the pressure of the reaction means that particles of the gas collide more frequently leading to a greater number of effective collisions and a consequent increase in the rate of reaction according to the collision theory.

Hence the answer above.

How many grams are there in 3.3 x 1023 particles of N2I6?
Andre45 [30]

Answer: With the exception of hydrogen, all atoms have three main parts. The parts of an atom are protons, electrons, and neutrons. A proton is positively charged and is located in the center or nucleus of the atom. Electrons are negatively charged and are located in rings or orbits spinning around the nucleus.
