A well-stirred batch polymerization reaction is to be run isothermally in a well-mixed vessel at a temperature of 60 ◦C. The rate of disappearance of the styrene monomer, C_M, from any control volume is

a. the heat load as a function of time,

 b. a feasible design of a cooling jacket. The design should specify the jacket volume, the effective cooling area, and the flow rate of cooling water.
