3. At a chemical plant, two CSTRs are suggested to be used as a two stage CSTR system for carrying out an irreversible liquid phase reaction A+BŐR Where the reaction is first order with respect to each of the reactants, and the rate constant is 0.01 L/(mol.min). The first reactor has a volume of 80 m², whereas the second one has 20 m². Which tank should be used as the first stage to get higher overall conversion if the feed stream is in equimolar amounts, Cao= CBo= 4 M, and the volumetric feed rate is 100 L/min.
