TRK P3-15b

The document describes a gas-phase reaction between nitrogen (N2), hydrogen (H2) to form ammonia (NH3). The reaction is carried out isothermally at 16.4 atm pressure and 227°C. Hydrogen makes up 50% of the initial molar feed and nitrogen makes up the other 50%. The summary provides: (1) A stoichiometric table for the reaction using hydrogen as the basis. (2) Equations to calculate the concentration of ammonia and hydrogen when the conversion of hydrogen is 60%, where CAO is the initial molar concentration, δ is the stoichiometric coefficient, and ε is the extent of reaction. (3) Rate

P3-15b The gas-phase reaction N2 + H2 NH3 Is to be carried out isothermally.

. The molar feed is 50% H2 and 50% N2,at a pressure of 16.4 atm and 227oC. (a) Construct a complete stoichiometric table. (b) What are CAO, , and ? Calculate the concentration of ammonia and hydrogen when the conversion of H2 is 60%. (c) Suppose by chance the reaction is elementary with = 40 dm3/mol/s. Write the rate of reaction solely as a function of conversion for (1) a flow system and (2) a constant volume batch system. Answer: P3-15b (a) Isothermal gas phase reaction.
