OBJECTIVE
To determine the reaction rate of the saponification reaction at ambient conditions and determine the reaction rate constant for it To verify the order of the reaction
Keywords
CSTR, reaction rate constant, order of reaction
Relevant Reaction
NaOH + CH3COOC2H5 CH3COONa + C2H5OH
Residence time is expressed as and =VR/VO, min, where VR = Reactor volume (volume of fluid in the reactor), in litres, and VO =Volumetric feed rate (Feed rate of Reactant A + Reactant B), in LPM. The design equation for the mixed flow reactor at steady state is: =VR/VO = CAO*XA/ (-rA) = (CAO- CA)/ (-rA) XA and rA are evaluated at exit stream conditions, which are the same as the conditions within the reactor in a perfectly mixed CSTR.

With CAO = CBO and under constant volume condition rate (for a second order reaction) can be represented as -rA = -dCA/dt = KCA2 =VR/VO = CAO*XA/ (-rA) = (CAO- CA)/ (-rA) =(CAO- CA)/ KCA2 (1) Degree of conversion, XA = (CAO- CA)/CAO (2) and rate of reaction, -rA = CAO*XA/ , g mol/ L min (3) the rate constant, K = (CAO- CA)/ CA2, L/g mol min (4) For nth order reaction, -rA =K CAn log(-rA) = log K + n*logCA The order of the reaction, n, can be obtained from a plot of log (rA) vs. log CA, that yields a straight line with slope = n, and intercept (at CA = 1 or at log CA = 0) shall give the value of log(K). Also, a plot of vs. XA/(1-XA)2 shall yield a straight line for an assumed second order reaction with slope = 1/(KCAO). From this slope, rate constant K can be obtained. [2]

DESCRIPTION OF THE EXPERIMENTAL SET UP The set-up has two sump tanks to which the NaOH and CH3COOC2H5 solutions are fed. The reactant solutions from these sump tanks are pumped to two overhead storage tanks. The reactants are supplied to the CSTR from these storage tanks and their flow rates are controlled by Rotameters. There is a stirrer in the CSTR for proper mixing. Samples for analysis are collected from the top outlet of the CSTR. The samples are analyzed by titration with NaOH solution. The simplified flow sheet for the experimental set up is :
EXPERIMENTAL PROCEDURE
1) Firstly, the reactant solutions to be used for the experiment were prepared. 20 L of 0.1N NaOH solution by dissolving 80gm NaOH in 20L water and 20 L of 0.1N CH3COOC2H5 solution by mixing 200.24 ml CH3COOC2H5 in 20L water. 2) The respective tanks were filled with these solutions and the motor was switched on to fill them into their respective overhead tanks. 3) Equal volumetric flow rates of both NaOH and CH3COOC2H5 were fed into the CSTR. The flow rates of the streams were measured with the Rotameter. 4) When the liquid in the reactor reached a certain level (nearly 3/4th) it started overflowing and the volume of liquid inside it became constant. It was at this instance that the stirrer of the CSTR was switched on. 5) Next, the heater, provided on the set-up, was switched on and a desired temperature was set on its digital controller. 6) An experimental measurement of the flow rate was made by collecting the product stream in a measuring cylinder for a certain time period, measured on a stopwatch. This flow rate was used to make an estimate of the residence time for the reactor. 7) Once the desired temperature was reached, it was assured that the reactor had reached steady state by allowing it to run undisturbed for 10 minutes or the calculated residence time, whichever was greater.
8) A 10ml sample of the product was taken from the outlet of the CSTR and was added to20ml 0.1N HCl kept in a flask. 9) The solution left in the flask was titrated with 0.1N NaOH which was added drop by drop from a burette, using phenolphthalein as indicator. The volume of NaOH (VNaOH) required for the complete neutralization of the leftover HCl was noted. 10) The steps 3 to 9 were repeated for different values of temperatures and different flow rates for each value of temperature. 11)The experiment was conducted at 40,50 and 600oC and the flow rates used for each temperature were 7.5,12.5 and 15 LPH, as measured by the Rotameter.

Error analysis
1. Slope of the first graph comes out to be ve . This can be due to the following errors: Time lag in which solution was taken and the titration was conducted. So, the reaction continued and concentrations changed. Titration was erroneous. The pink solution stability and first appearance, or presence of some water in the flask. Dropper used may be of other chemical.
