Question: ( 2 ) ( 4 0 points ) Successive substitution method: Problem 6 . 6 : A synthetic - ammonia plant A continuous bleed of

(2)(40 points) Successive substitution method:
Problem 6.6: A synthetic-ammonia plant
A continuous bleed of 25molss of mixture of N2,H2, and Ar is provided
to prevent Ar concentration from increasing beyond a certain value.
If the incoming feed consists of 100molss of N2,300molss of H2, and 1mols of Ar ,
simulate this system by successive substitution
As the argon flow rate increases, the % conversion decreases as
Conversion percentage (%)=50*exp(-0.016w)
where w is the argon flow rate in mols.
Please use the following trial values:
A4=15molss;H4=200molss;N4=60molss,TOT4=A4+H4+N4

After 400100ps, A6=188 mol/a, A
Determine the flow rates of mixture through the reactor and the rate of liquid ammonia
production (A6) in mols ?s. Note that A6=2**N1;
After the first iteration:
A4=molss;H4=molss;N4=molss,A6=molss
After the second iteration:
A4=molss;H4=molss;N4=molss,A6=molss
After the 3rd iteration:
A4=molss;H4=molss;N4=molss,A6=molss
