Water (H₂O) is split into hydrogen (H₂) and oxygen (O₂) in a reactor. While only water enters the reactor, the conversion is incomplete. So all three components exit the reactor.

(a)

Draw and label a process flow diagram. Clearly number each stream.

(b)

Starting from the general form of the energy balance, list the assumptions that should be used to simplify the energy balance.

(c)

Starting from the general form of the energy balance again, apply the assumptions and simplify the energy balance.

(d)

Finally, write the energy balance in terms of molar flow rates for all components entering and exiting the reactor.

Butane, C4H10, reacts with oxygen, O2, to form water, H2O, and carbon dioxide, CO2, as shown in the following chemical equation: 2C4H10(g)+13O2(g)→10H2O(g)+8CO2(g) The coefficients in this equation represent mole ratios. Notice that the coefficient for water (10) is five times that of butane (2). Thus, the number of moles of water produced is five times the number of moles of butane that react. Also, notice that the coefficient for butane (2) is one-fourth the coefficient of carbon dioxide (8). Thus,...

Ethane (C2H6) is combusted in 18.1% excess oxygen (O2) in an adiabatic reactor. The feed of ethane enters the reactor at 25.8 mol/hr and 93.7°C. The stream exiting the reactor contains ethane, oxygen, carbon dioxide (CO2), carbon monoxide (CO) and water (H2O), so ethane reacts by both complete and partial combustion reactions. The conversion of ethane is 15.8% and the conversion of oxygen is 12.3%. Assume that pressure effects are negligible. (a) Draw and label a process flow diagram. Number...
