Conversion According to the Series-of-stirred-tanks Model

6-10 Conversion According to the Series-of-stirred-tanks Model 

The mass balance of reacting component for the first of a series of ideal stirred-tank reactors (see Secs. 4-6 and 4-7) is 

Cl = concentration of reactant in stream leaving the first reactor 

If additional reactors with the same mean residence time are in series with the first one, the balance for the second reactor would be 

Regardless of the value of a, the series of mass balances can be solved
