Question

100 mol/s NH3 and 200 mol/s of O2 at 25˚C are fed into a reactor in which ammonia is completely consumed. The product gas emerges at 300˚C.

 

  1. Sketch a block flow diagram
  2. What is the rate of production of NO per 100 mols of NH3 ?
  3. Calculate the rate at which heat must be transferred to or from the reactor, assuming operation at 1 atm using the heat of reaction method
  4. Repeat part c using the heat of formation method and compare your two answers

 

 

 

4NH3(g)          +          5O2(g) à        4NO(g)           +          6H2O(v)

 

ΔHr˚= -904.7 kJ/mol
