For a mixed flow reactor operating at steady state, the rate of reaction is given by______________?
Correct answer: C. (FA0/V) XA
- A. (FA0/V) - (dCA/dt)
- B. (FA0/V) + (dCA/dt)
- C. (FA0/V) XA
- D. -(dCA/dt)
Explanation
For a steady-state mixed reactor, the exit concentration equals the reactor concentration, and the material balance gives -rA = FA0XA/V. Thus the rate is represented by (FA0/V)XA.
