Question:
Carbon monoxide is burned at 200 °C under atmospheric pressure with dry air at 500 °C in excess of 90% of that theoretically necessary. The combustion products leave the reaction chamber at 1000 °C. Calculate the heat released in the reaction chamber in kilocalories per kg mol of CO burned, assuming complete combustion.
DATA:
Chemical reaction:
CO (g) + ½ O2 (g) = CO2 (g)
Energy balance equation:
where,
P = products = CO2, O2, N2
R = reactants = CO, Air
Calculation base 1.0 kg mol
Normal heat of reaction = ΔH25°C=-67636 kcal
Heat capacity of substances
SUBSTANCE | AVERAGE MOLAR HEAT CAPACITY between 25 -1000°C |
CO | 7.017 |
Air | 7.225 |
CO2 | 11.92 |
O2 | 7.941 |
N2 | 7.507 |
