The extent of a reaction is 10, and the stoichiometric coefficient of O2 is 2.5, if the moles of O2 entering the process is 45, what is the percentage of excess air?

Correct Answer:
Moles of O2 required = 10*2.5 = 25, => Percentage of excess air = 100*(45 – 25)/25 = 80%.

For a reaction, the extent of reaction equation is Ni = Nio + ϒVi is Where: Ni = Moles of species I present in the system after the reaction occurs Nio = Moles of species I present in the system when the reaction starts Vi = Stoichiometric coefficient for species i in the specified chemical reaction equation ϒ = Extent of reaction

Rate constant for a first order reaction does not depend upon reaction time, extent of reaction and the initial concentration of reactants ; but it is a function of reaction temperature. In a chemical reaction, the time required to reduce the concentration of reactant from 100 gm moles/litre to 50 gm moles/litre is same as that required to reduce it from 2 gm moles/litre to 1 gm mole/litre in the same volume. Then the order of this reaction is

Compound A is extracted from a solution of A + B into a pure solvent S. A Co-current unit is used for the liquid-liquid extraction. The inlet rate of the solution containing A is 200 moles of B/hr.m2 and the solvent flow, rate is 400 moles of S/m2.hr. The equilibrium data is represented by Y = 3X2, where Y is in moles of a A/moles of B and X is in moles A/moles of S. The maximum percentage extraction achieved in the unit is

For the given reaction CO2 + 4 H → CH2O + H2O In the feed there are 4 moles of CO2, 10 moles of H. If the reaction happens then 8. What is the number of moles of the extent reactant in the reaction after completion?

What is the percentage of excess air, if 10 moles of air entered the process and only 5 moles of that are required?

The fresh feed to an ammonia synthesis reactor contains nitrogen, hydrogen and 2.0 mole per cent inerts. The molar ratio of H2:N2 is 3:1. The product stream consists of pure ammonia. Since conversion in the reactor is only 15%, a recycle stream is used and in order to avoid build-up of inerts, a purge stream is withdrawn. The rate of purge stream is adjusted to keep inert concentration in the recycle stream at 8 mole per cent. For a fresh feed rate of 100 moles/hr. Note that recycle stream contains only nitrogen, hydrogen and inerts. The N2:H2 ratio of 1:3 is maintained in every process stream, and calculate the number of moles, moles of inerts and moles of hydrogen in the recycle stream?

A reactor is supplied with 6 moles of CO and 3 moles of O2 and produced 4 moles of CO2, what is the extent of reaction?

A reactor is supplied with 10 moles of CH4 and 10 moles of O2, if the extent of reaction is 3, what are the moles of CO2 produced?

A reactor is supplied with 10 moles of O2 and 10 moles of H2, if the extent of reaction is 5, how many moles of water is produced?

There were 10 moles of a substance present initially in a system, 5 moles were added to it and a reaction occurred so that its moles are reduced by 20%, what are the final moles of a substance in the system?
