Extracted text: 4. The Diels-Alder reaction between benzoquinone (B) and cyclopentadiene (C) produces an adduct: B+C → adduct Assuming an equimolar ratio of reactants, -rB = kC;² and k = 9.92 m³/kmol-ksec Determine the reactor size requirements (i.e., total reactor volume) for (a) a single CSTR configuration versus (b) two identical CSTRS in series. %3D Reactant feed concentrations are equimolar, with each equal to 0.08 kmol/m³. The liquid feed rate is 0.278 m³/ksec and the desired fractional conversion of B is XB = 0.875.
