A CSTR is to be designed in which an exothermic liquid phase first order reaction of the type, A 
R, is taking place. The reactor is to be provided with a jacket in which coolant is flowing. Following data is given: CA0= 5 kmole/m3 ; XA = 0.5; Feed temperature = reactor temperature = 40°C. Rate constant at 40°C = 1 min-1 ; (ΔH) = - 40kJ/mole; ρ = 1000kg/m3 CP = 4 J/gm.°C ; q = 10-3 m3/min (ρ and CP are same for the reactant and product streams). The amount of heat to be removed is

Amount of heat = (5*10^3*0.5*10^-3*40)/60.
= 5/3.
= 5/3.
