A batch reactor is characterised by ____________________?
Correct answer: B. Variation in extent of reaction and properties of the reaction mixture with time
- A. Constant residence time
- B. Variation in extent of reaction and properties of the reaction mixture with time
- C. Variation in reactor volume
- D. Very low conversion
Explanation
In a batch reactor, reactants are charged initially and their concentrations, conversion, and other mixture properties change with time. The reactor volume need not vary, and a batch reactor is not defined by low conversion.
