Adapt from Question 15 of Chapter 5 ofSolen andHarb
Adapt from Question 15 of Chapter 5 ofSolen andHarbA chemical process is used to convert toluene (MW=92) and hydrogen to benzene (MW=78) and methane (CH4) by the reactionToluene + H2 → Benzene + CH4Two streams enter the process.The first input stream is pure liquid toluene, which enters at a rate of 40 mol/s. The second input stream is a mixture of H2 (95 mole%) and CH4 (5 mole%).The flow rate of H2 in the second stream is equal to 200 mol/s.Two streams leave the process.The first output stream contains only liquid benzene (product) and toluene (unconverted reactant).The second output stream contains gaseous H2 and CH4.If the conversion of toluene in the process is 75.9 %, what is the mass fraction of benzene in the liquid output stream?Hint: Like many situations in life, this problem may provide more information than you need to answer the given question.Suggest to follow the below stepsCalculate the rate of consumption of tolueneCalculate the left over of toluene in the liquid stream, then convert this amount from mole to massCalculate the rate of benzene formation then convert this amount from mole to massNow you can calculate the mass fraction of benzene in the liquid output stream
