Question

A batch reactor is characterized by:

• A. Constant residence time
• B. Variation in extent of reaction and properties of the reaction mixture with time
• C. Variation in reactor volume
• D. Very low conversion

Hint:

Batch reactors are ideal for processes where the reaction time is critical and variable.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Step 1: Understanding Batch Reactor Characteristics 
In a batch reactor, the reaction takes place in a closed system where the properties and extent of the reaction change over time. 
Step 2: Conclusion 
The batch reactor is characterized by the variation in the extent of reaction and properties with time, making option (B) the correct choice.
