Extracted text: Question 1. The homogenous, irreversible, exothermic, liquid phase reaction A → R, is being carried out in a reactor system consisting of two ideal CFSTR in series. The molar flow rate of A entering the first CFSTR is 55,000 mol h-1. At the system entrance, the concentration of A is 6.5 mol L·1 and the concentration of R is negligible. The rate constant for the forward reaction is 1.28 h-1 and the overall conversion of A in the system is 0.75. (a) If the volume of the second CFSTR is 10,000 L, determine the required volume of the first CFSTR.
