Question

Aqueous feed containing reactant a (c,, = 2 mol/liter) enters a plug flow reactor (10 liter) which has a provision for recycling a portion of the flowing stream. The reaction kinetics and stoichiometry are mol a-tr, -ra=lc c liter emin problems 149 and we wish to get 96% conversion. Should we use the recycle stream? If so, at what value should we set the recycle flow rate so as to obtain the highest production rate, and what volumetric feed rate can we process to this conversion in the reactor?

Answer 2

Final Answer: NaNO3 (9 moles) and AlCl3 (3 moles)

Explanation:

To begin, we'll need the balanced equation, which is as follows:

(3)NaNO3 + AlCl3 —> Al(NO3)3 + (3)NaCl

Next, we'll need the limiting reactant, which is NaCl, because it takes more of it to make AICl than Al(NO3).

Now we need to figure out how much AlCl we can make:

Because 3 moles of NaCl are required to react with Al(NO3)3 and produce 1 mole of AlCl3, we can only make 3 AlCl3 due to a lack of NaCl.

As a result, there would be 9 NaNO3 and 3 AlCl3.
