Here are the key steps to solve this problem: 1) Given: 70% conversion of a liquid reactant in a batch reactor in 13 min 2) Calculate the rate constant k for the batch reactor using the integrated rate law for a batch reactor: -ln(1-X) = kt k = 0.0926 min-1 3) For a plug flow reactor (PFR), use the rate law and conversion to calculate the space time (T): T = X/(kCAo(1-X)) = 0.7/(0.0926(1-0.7)) = 25.2 min 4) For a mixed flow reactor (MFR), use the
