Chapter 5, Problem 5.9P

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The reactor which is better among CSTR and PFR with perfect conditions is to be stated.

Concept Introduction:

The conversion, X can be defined as the moles of any species A that are reacted per mole of A fed in the reactor.
