Five friends went for a trip where each carried a certain number of apples with them. The number of apples carried by C was 1 less than that by D, which was 5 more than the number of apples carried by E. The total number of apples carried by A and B both was equal to the average number of apples carried by C, D and E. If D carried more apples than B and they together carried 14 apples, which of the following is a possible value of the apples carried by A?
The gas phase reaction 2A ⇋ B is carried out in an isothermal plug flow reactor. The feed consists of 80 mole % A and 20 mole % inerts.

A pollutant P degrades according to first order kinetics. An aqueous stream containing P at 2 kmole/m3 and volumetric flow rate 1 m3/h requires a mixed flow reactor of volume V to bring down the pollutant level to 0.5 kmole/m3. The inlet concentration of the pollutant is now doubled and the volumetric flow rate is tripled. If the pollutant level is to be brought down to the same level of 0.5 kmole/m3, the volume of the mixed flow reactor should be increased by a factor of
