A reaction of H₂ + Cl₂ → HCl occured in a constant temperature and constant pressure flow reactor at a temperature of 573.15 K and a pressure of 2 atmosphere. Pure Cl₂ is used in excess, with a mole flow rate that is greater than 1.5 times the stoichiometric flow rate. It is assumed that the rxn acts like ideal gas. The feed gas has hydrogen = 80 percent moles, inert = 20 percent moles, and has excess chlorine gas that all simultaneously goes into the reactor. a.) Determine the concentration of hydrogen gas, chlorine gas, hydrogen chloride, and inert at the exit if you want to get an 80 percent conversion of hydrogen gas. b.) Determine the exit stream composition (mol fraction)
