Chemical Reaction Engineering
A CSTR is to be designed in which an exothermic liquid phase first order reaction of the type, A → R, is taking place. The reactor is to be provided with a jacket in which coolant is flowing. Following data is given: CA0= 5 kmole/m³ ; XA = 0.5; Feed temperature = reactor temperature = 40°C. Rate constant at 40°C = 1 min⁻¹ ; (ΔH) = - 40kJ/mole; ρ = 1000kg/m³ CP = 4 J/gm.°C ; q = 10⁻³ m³/min (ρ and CP are same for the reactant and product streams). The amount of heat to be removed is

4kW
2/3 kW
5/3 kW
1kW

Chemical Reaction Engineering
The reactions of high molecularity are rare, because

Of requirement of very large concentration for such reactions
Of low probability of many body collisions
Many body collisions are not favoured energetically
Of very large activation energy of many bodies
