A continuous stirred tank reactor at steady state operates at

  • A.the conditions of its exit stream
  • B.the conditions of its own feed stream
  • C.an average of the feed and exit conditions
  • D.conditions that vary along its length

Answer: A

Perfect mixing means every point in the vessel is at the exit composition, so the reaction proceeds at the lowest rate in the whole conversion range. This single fact explains most of the differences from a plug flow reactor.
