Question

One gram-mole each of CO2, O2, and N2 are fed to a batch reactor and heated to 3000 K and 5.0 atm. The two reactions given here proceed to equilibrium (also shown are the equilibrium constants at 3000 K) 1. PcoPo0.3272 atm Pco2 PNO0.1222 (po.PN2) Calculate the equilibrium composition (component mole fractions) of the reactor contents. [Suggestion: Express K, and K2 in terms of the extents of the two reactions, ζ, andる. (See Section 4.6d.) Then use Excel's Solver to obtain values for ζ, and and use the results to determine the equilibrium mole fractions.
