A liquid phase chemical reaction (A → B) takes place in a well-stirred tank. The concentration of compound A in the feed is CA0 (mol/m3 ), and that in the outlet stream is CA (mol/m3 ). Neither concentration varies with time. The volume of the tank contents is V (m3) and the volumetric flow rate of the inlet and outlet streams is Ẇ (m3 /sec). The reaction rate (the rate at which A is consumed by reaction in the tank) is given by the expression r (mol A consumed/s) = kVCA wherek is a constant. (a) Is this process continuous, batch, or semi batch? Is ittransient or steady - state?(b) What would you expect the reactant concentrationCA to equal if k = 0 (no reaction) ? What should itapproach if k [infinity] ( infinitely rapid reaction) ?(c) Write a differential balance on A, starting which terms inthe general balance equation ( accumulation = input + generation -output - consumption) you discarded and why you discarded them. Usethe balance to derive the following relation between the inlet andoutlet reactant concentrations :CA = CA0 / (1 + kV/ ). Verify that this relation predicts the results in part(b).

At steady state, air at 200 kpa, 325 k, and mass flow rate of 0.5 kg/s enters an insulated duct having differing inlet and exit cross-sectional areas. the inlet cross-sectional area is 6 cm2. at the duct exit, the pressure of the air is 100 kpa and the velocity is 250 m/s. neglecting potential energy effects and modeling air as an 1.008 kj/kg k, determine ideal gas with constant cp = (a) the velocity of the air at the inlet, in m/s. (b) the temperature of the air at the exit, in k. (c) the exit cross-sectional area, in cm2
