2. (25 points). i) A contaminated soil is to be excavated and treated in a laboratory completelymixed batch reactorthat contains chemicalsthat degrade the contaminantspresent in the soil. During treatment the concentration of the pollutant in the soilwas measured and found to be:day 1, 600mg/L; day 5, 450mg/L; day 10,300mg/L. Determine the time to achieve 99%reduction in the original concentration, which also represents the retentiontime ofthis reactor. ii)Will aPlug Flow Reactor (PFR) bemore efficient in removing the contaminants from the soilifthe volume of the reactor is 400 m3, the flow of the soil slurry (i. e., the mixture of the soil withliquid chemicals added to degrade the contaminants) is20 m3/day, the slurry has differentchemicalsfor contaminantdegradation compared to the batch reactor that degrade the pollutantfollowing2ndorder kinetics with rate coefficient0.00008L/mg. day?Show your mass balance for each reactor clearly.

Achemist is studying the following equilibirum, which has the given equilibrium constant at a certain temperature: 2 no(g) + cl2(g) < => 2 nocl(g) kp = 2 x 10^(-6)he fills a reaction vessel at this temperature with 13. atm of nitrogen monoxide gas and 12. atm of chlorine gas. use this data to answer the questions: a. can you predict the equilibrium pressure of noci, using only the tools available to you within aleks? y/nb. if you said yes, then enter the equilibrium pressure of nocl at right. round your answer to 1 significant digit.
