Exercise 11.1 Mixing in a continuous stirred tank reactor 

Ethyl acetate reacts with soda in a CSTR as follows  

The reaction is first order with respect to each of the constituents. This reaction s constant is A = 200 L moT h . In the following discussiort, we denote ethyl acetate by A and soda by B. Both products are in solution in water. The diffusivities of the two constituents are, respectively, Da= 10 cm s andDB= 3.1 x 10 cm s .  

The reactor is a cube of volume V= 1 L. Both products enter the reactor at the same rate g = 15 L h and have been prepared with the same concentration C = 1 mol L.  

Is the mixing effective What is the advancement time of the reaction To what extent is the reaction completed at the reactor s outlet
