This question concerns the following elementary liquid-phase reaction: A=B+C (a) Express the net rate of reaction in terms of the initial concentration and conversion of A and the relevant rate constants. [5 marks] (b) Determine the equilibrium conversion for this system. [6 marks] (c) If the reaction is carried out in an isothermal PER, determine the volume required to achieve 90% of your answer to part (b). Use numerical integration where appropriate. [6 marks] (d) For this specific case, discuss ways in which you can maximise the amount of B that can be obtained [3 marks) Data: CAO = 2.5 kmol m-3 Vo = 3.0 mºn-1 krwd = 10.7h-1 Krev = 4.5 [kmol m-'n-1
