In an ideal mixed reactor (at steady state), the ___________________?
Correct answer: C. All A., B. and C.
- A. Space time is equivalent to holding time for constant density systems
- B. Composition throughout the reactor remains same
- C. All A., B. and C.
- D. Exit stream has the same composition as the fluid within the reactor
Explanation
In an ideal mixed reactor, perfect mixing makes the composition uniform and equal to the exit composition. For constant density, the reactor volume divided by volumetric flow also equals the holding time, so all three statements are true.
