Explain why the x is higher than expected


A liquid phase reaction A--->B is carried out in a 1000-gal CSTR that has a single impeller located halfway down the reactor. The expected value for conversion (X) is 0.5, but the measured value of conversion is 0.57. Explain why the X is higher than expected. The liquid enters at the top and exists at the bottom. The reaction is second order.
