A first-order homogeneous liquid-phase reaction (A→B) occurs in an adiabatic, ideal mixed flow reactor operating at steady state. The volumetric flow rate of the feed is 4 L min−1 and volume of the reactor is 20 L. At the reactor temperature of 500 K, the reaction rate constant is 1 min−1, and heat of reaction is −20 kcal mol−1. The average heat capacity of the feed as well as the reaction mixture in the temperature range of interest is 0.3 kcal mol−1 K−1.
At the inlet, the feed temperature (in K) is _________ (rounded off to one decimal place).

Correct : 444.4
