The term reactor refers to a structure in which material can be made to undergo a controlled nuclear reaction. They are used widely in industrial plants.

∙ 10y agoA reactor vessel in a boiling water reactor is approximately 300 tons.
for pressurized light water reactor type, as an example, the nuclear reactor components are * Reactor vessel (that contains the nuclear fuel and surrounded with water and contains control rod for power control and for safety) * reactor coolant pump * steam generator * reactor pressurizer * piping out of the vessel to the pressurizer, from pressurizer to steam generator, from steam generator to reactor coolant pump, and from pump back to the reactor vessel.
The quantity depends on: the type of the reactor, power of the reactor, enrichment of uraniu, chemical form of the fuel, etc. For a research reactor some kilograms, for a power reactor more than 100 tonnes/year.
This depends on the type and power of the reactor; say tens of metric tons for a commercial reactor..
how electricity is produced in a nuclear reactor
You may mean FBR - this stands for Fast Breeder Reactor
Do you mean pebble bed reactor?
If you mean a nuclear reactor, and not a chemical one, there is only one way, and that is by nuclear fission in the fuel
In dealing with a nuclear reactor SCRAM stands for Safety Control Rod Activator Mechanism. Nuclear reactors can be quite dangerous.

This question is too wide to be answered. If you mean a nuclear reactor, say so in the question. If you mean a chemical reaction vessel, say so and indicate what kind of reaction. If you mean something else, tell us what. Please submit a new question.
a completely mixed reactor. the concentration in the reactor is the same that flows our of the reactor
A reactor vessel in a boiling water reactor is approximately 300 tons.
Nuclear reactor kinetics is the branch of reactor engineering and reactor physics and control that deals with long term time changes in reactor fuel and nuclear reactors.
Not a nuclear reactor!
