Reaction
My marketing studies all show that I can sell as much of product C that I can make.
I would like to increase the reaction rate and hold my manufacturing costs to a minimum, thereby reducing my manufacturing cycle time, minimizing production costs, and increasing my profit margin. Given the following reaction to produce product C which decomposes above 35 degrees Celsius, what should I do given that the reaction is 2nd order in A and 1st order in B and reagent B is 50 times more expensive than A to purchase. There are no equipment constraints.
A + B --> C (presently run at 25 degrees Celsius)
a. Increase reaction temp to 40 degrees Celsius and double the amount of A
b. Increase reaction temp to 35 degrees Celsius and double the amount of B
c. Do nothing
d. Increase amounts of A and B and keep the temperature constant
e. Increase reaction temperature to 35 degrees Celsius and double the amount of A
