If it were me assigned this as a student project, I would research to find a reasonable go-by if possible. At least I might find someone else's concentration data. Then I would design the reactor based on the most favorable interpretation of design parameters to make my task the easiest and then state the assumptions made in the design basis. You must have a design basis to do the work. If it is not provided and this is a purely academic exercise, then fill in the missing parameters and state clearly the assumptions made.

The last I looked at a reactor to produce cumene by alkylating benzene with propylene, it was a multi-bed reactor.
