Extracted text: The irreversible elementary gas-phase reaction A+B→C+D is carried out isothermally at 305 K in a packed bed reactor with 100 kg of catalyst as shown in figure below: Р, 20 atm P=2 atm Figure.1 Packed bed reactor with 100 kg of catalyst. The entering pressure was 20 atm and the exit pressure is 2 atm. The feed is equal molar in A and B and the flow is in the turbulent regime, with species A feed molar rate (F)of 10 mol/min and feed concentration (C0) of 0.4 mol/dm . Currently 80% of conversion is achieved. Calculate the conversion if the catalyst particle size were doubled and everything else remained the same.
