is to be carried out isothermally in a continuous-flow reactor. The entering volumetric flow rate Vo is 10 dm³/h. (Note: Fa= CaVo. For a constant volumetric flow rate v=vo, then Fa= CaVo. Also, Cao=Fao/Vo = ([5 mol/h]/[10 dm³/h])0.5 mol/dm³.)Calculate both the CSTR and PFR reactor volumes necessary to consume 99% of A (i.e., Ca = 0.01 Cao) when the entering molar flow rate is 5 mol/h,assuming the reaction rate -ra is:
