If τ = 5 s, first order rate constant, k = 0.25 sec^-1 and the number of tanks, N is 5, then the conversion is ____(a) 67.2%(b) 75%(c) 33%(d) 87.45%I had been asked this question in an interview.I need to ask this question from Tanks in Series Model in chapter Compartment Models, Models for Non Ideal Reactors of Chemical Reaction Engineering

Answer»

The correct option is (a) 67.2%

For explanation: XA = 1-\(\FRAC{1}{(1+\frac{τk}{N})^N} \)

1-\(\frac{1}{(1+\frac{5×0.25}{5})^5}\) = 67.2%.
