Q159

The reaction A → B is conducted in an adiabatic plug flow reactor (PFR). Pure A at a concentration of 2 kmol/m3 is fed to the reactor at the rate of 0.01 m3/s and at a temperature of 500 K. If the exit conversion is 20%, then the exit temperature (in k) is (Data: Heat of reaction at 298 K = -50000 kJ/kmole of A reacted Heat capacities CPA = CPB = 100 kJ/kmole. K (may be assumed to be independent of temperature))
