For a given reaction reactor is supplied with a feed of composition 46% C3H7O4, 44% O2 and 10% N2 and if 50% of the limiting reagent conversion takes place. 4C3H7O4 + 11O2 → 12CO2 + 14H2O 7. What is the percentage of O2 in the product?

Correct Answer: 18
Assume that 100 moles of feed is present in the reactor and do the material balance for each, Percentage of O2 = 18%.

The reaction between ethylene and hydrogen bromide to form ethyl bromide is carried out in a continuous reactor. C2H4 + HBr = C2H5Br The product stream is analyzed and found to contain 51.7 mole% C2H5Br and 17.3% HBr. The feed to the reactor contains only ethylene and hydrogen bromide. Calculate the fractional conversion of the limiting reactant and the percentage by which the other reactant is in excess. If the molar flow rate of the feed stream is 165 mol/s, what is the extent of reaction?

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in the reactor is only 15%, a recycle stream is used and in order to avoid build-up of inerts, a purge stream is withdrawn.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 moles of nitrogen entering the reactor and in the recycle stream?

A reactor is supplied with 5 moles each of CH3OH and O2, and the following reactions occur, CH3OH + 1/2O2 -> CH2O + H2O and then CH2O + 1/2O2 -> CO + H2O, the conversion of methanol is 80% in first reaction, and conversion of CH2O is 50% in second reaction. How many moles of CH2O came out of the reactor?

A reactor is supplied with two steams with equal flow rates, stream-1 containing 75% SO2, 25% N2 and stream-2 containing pure H2S, if the product has 1200 grams of S, and the ratio of H2S to H2O is 5 and the ratio of SO2 to H2S is 2, what fraction of limiting reagent is converted into product?

An irreversible aqueous phase reaction, A + B → P, is carried out in an adiabatic mixed flow reactor. A feed containing 4 kmole/m3 of each A and B enters the reactor at 8 m3/hr. If the temperature of the exit stream is never to exceed 390 K, what is the maximum inlet feed temperature allowed?
(Data: Heat of reaction = -50 kJ/mole, Density of the reacting mixture = 1000 kg/m3, Specific heat of reacting mixture = 2 kJ/kg.K)
The above data can be assumed to be independent of temperature and composition.
