Methanol (CH3OH) is made by reacting gaseous carbon monoxide (CO) and gaseous hydrogen (H2).

A. What is the theoretical yield of methanol if you react 37.5 kg of CO(g) with 4.60 kg of H2(g)?

B. You found that 1.83 x 104 g of methanol is actually produced. What is the percent yield of methanol?

Methanol (CH3OH) is produced by reacting carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrogen (H2). A fresh feed stream containing CO and H2 joins a recycle stream and the combined stream is fed into a reactor. The reactor outlet stream flows at a rate of 350 mol/min and contains 10.6 wt% H2, 64.0 wt% CO, and 25.4 wt% CH3OH. The stream enters a cooler in which most of the methanol is condense. The liquid methanol is withdrawn as a product, and the gas...
