The catalytic gas phase reaction A rightarrow B is to be carried out in a packed bed reactor under isothermal operation. The reactant is pure A with an inlet concentration of 1 g-mol/dm3, the entering pressure is 25 atm and the entering volumetric flow rate is 1 dm3/min. the first order reaction rate constant K, which is based on reactant A is 1 dm3/kg. cat. min. 1. Develop the chemical reaction engineering algorithm, - mole balance, rate laws stoichiometry and combine them together, finally solve the following using MATLAB
2. Study the effect of the pressure drop on the conversion for the first order reaction and plot conversion and pressure (p = P/Po) as a function of the weight of the packing material W. consider the pressure drop parameter a is between 0.05 - 0.2 /kg, also consider the maximum weight of the catalyst is 2 kg.

Two flowing streams of argon gas are adiabatically mixed to form a single flow/stream. one stream is 1.5 kg/s at 400 kpa and 200 c while the second stream is 2kg/s at 500 kpa and 100 ? . it is stated that the exit state of the mixed single flow of argon gas is 150 c and 300 kpa. assuming there is no work output or input during the mixing process, does this process violate either the first or the second law or both? explain and state all your assumptions.
