One mole each of CO 2 , O 2 , and N 2 are fed to a batch reactorand heated to 3000 K and 5.0 atm.
Two reactions as shown proceed to equilibrium
CO 2<-----> CO + ½ O 2 K p1 = 0.3272 atm 1/2
½ N 2 + ½ O 2 <-------> NO, K p2 = 0.1222
Calculate the equilibrium composition of the reactor content.[CO 2 = 25.74 mole%; CO = 4.50
mole%; O 2 = 33.55 mole%; N 2 = 30.30 mole%; NO = 3.90mole%]
