Calculate the final temperature and time required to reach 50 percent conversion in the batch reactor described in Example 9.3.2 if the heat of reaction is now -40 kcallmol. Do you think that this time is achievable in a large reactor system?
Example 9.3.2
The hydration of 1-hexene to 2-hexanol is accomplished in an adiabatic batch reactor:
