Pick the WRONG design guideline for a reactor in which the reactions, A → R (desired) and A → S (undesired) are to take place. The ratio of the reaction rates is $$\frac{{{{\text{r}}_{\text{R}}}}}{{{{\text{r}}_{\text{S}}}}} = \frac{{{{\text{k}}_1}}}{{{{\text{k}}_2}}} \cdot {{\text{C}}_{\text{A}}}^{{\text{a}} - {\text{b}}}$$
A. Use high pressure and eliminate inerts, when a > b
B. Avoid recycle, when a > b
C. Use batch reactor or plug flow reactor, when a > b
D. Use CSTR with a high conversion, when a > b

A. $${{\text{k}}_{\text{e}}}{\text{ff}} = {\text{k}} + {{\text{k}}_{\text{g}}}$$
B. $${{\text{k}}_{\text{e}}}{\text{ff}} = \frac{{{\text{k}} + {{\text{k}}_{\text{g}}}}}{2}$$
C. $${{\text{k}}_{\text{e}}}{\text{ff}} = {\left( {{\text{k}}{{\text{k}}_{\text{g}}}} \right)^{\frac{1}{2}}}$$
D. $$\frac{1}{{{{\text{k}}_{\text{e}}}{\text{ff}}}} = \frac{1}{{\text{k}}} + \frac{1}{{{{\text{k}}_{\text{g}}}}}$$
