Consider the flowchart below: The flowchart shows the substances present in each

The flowchart shows the substances present in each stream of a process of decomposition of a compound A by the reaction A B + C. The process feed stream consists of 100 kmol/h of A and 1 kmol/h of an inert I. The reactor effluent contains 68 kmol/h of A and the purge stream 34 kmol/h of A. Based on these data, the conversion per pass, the overall conversion and the molar concentration of the inert in the reactor feed stream are , in approximate values, respectively: Present your considerations and calculations.

a) 70%, 50% and 20% b) 40%, 60% and 10% c) 55%, 40% and 25% d) 30%, 30% and 20% e) 50%, 65% and 15%
