7) Aqueous A at concentration C

Ao
= 1 mol/liter is introduced into a bacth reactor where it
reacts away from product R according to stoichiometry AR. The concentration of A in the
reactor is monitored at various times as shown below.
For C
Ao
= 500 mol/m
3
find the conversion of reactant after 5 hours in the batch reactor.
