At z = 200, i.e. λ = 0 (exit), conversion X = 75 %.
The decrease in reaction order from 2nd to 1st has the effect of increasing the exit conversion by
19%. Once the concentration of A drops below 1 mol/dm3 then the rate of consumption of A does
not fall as rapidly (as the 2nd order reaction) and hence resulting in a larger conversion.
