The ratio of volume of mixed reactor to the volume of P.F.R. (for identical flow rate, feed composition and conversion) for zero order reaction is________________?
Correct answer: C. 1
- A. ∞
- B. 0
- C. 1
- D. > 1
Explanation
For a zero-order reaction, the rate is constant and independent of concentration. Both a mixed reactor and a plug-flow reactor therefore require V = Fₐ₀X/k, giving a volume ratio of 1.

Rate constant for a first order reaction does not depend upon reaction time, extent of reaction and the initial concentration of reactants; but it is a function of reaction temperature. In a chemical reaction, the time required to reduce the concentration of reactant from 100 gm moles/litre to 50 gm moles/litre is same as that required to reduce it from 2 gm moles/litre to 1 gm mole/litre in the same volume. Then the order of this reaction is ?
