question concerns the following elementary liquid-phase reaction: AB+C (a) Express the net rate of reaction in terms of the initial concentration and conversion of A and the relevant rate constants. (b) Determine the equilibrium conversion for this system. (c) If the reaction is carried out in an isothermal PFR, determine the volume required to achieve 90% of your answer to part (b). Use numerical integration where appropriate. (d) For this specific case, discuss ways in which you can maximise the amount of B that can be obtained.
