• Assignment Query

  I wish to know in the assignment problem, how we decide DO values for individual reactants (I took DO=1 for Ethylene Glycol and zero for others- please let me know it is decided). Also I wish to know how to decide Tmin and Tmax values (When I took Tmin= 300K as I read that 333K is the desired temp, I got 100+ values of Conversions ).Also, the type of reactor was not specified (Adiabatic or Isothermal). Has these things omitted for us to research about them through papers?

• Plug Flow reactor

  We are given the value of k, but you put it on the space for value of A, the frequency factor. Where do we put the value of k? Also where do we put the units of k, as in the assignment the units of k = 1/seconds and on the tutorial k was unit-less. You also left velocity units empty.l assume velocity unit = reaction rate units and amount unit = molar concentration units. Your help will be much appreciated. Thanks
