1. This document provides 6 problems related to reaction engineering and kinetics. It asks the reader to: calculate volumes for different reactor types, reaction times, derive equations, and calculate rates.
2. It provides background information on plug flow, continuous stirred tank, batch, and packed bed reactors. It also defines rate of reaction terms and asks the reader to distinguish between homogeneous and heterogeneous reaction rates.
3. The problems cover topics like mole balances, reaction orders, reactor sizing, pressure changes, and applying concepts to a human metabolic reaction.
