An irreversible liquid-phase second-order reaction
with rate constant k = 0.2 liter.mol−1min−1, is carried out in an isothermal non-ideal reactor. A tracer experiment conducted on this reactor resulted in a residence time distribution (E-curve) as shown in the figure below. The areas of the rectangles (i), (ii), and (iii) are equal. Pure A at a concentration of 1.5 mol.liter−1 is fed to the reactor. The segregated model mimics the nonideality of this reactor. The percentage conversion of A at the exit of the reactor is ______ (rounded off to the nearest integer).
