Question: How do I do Qn 4 to get the answer provided? QUESTION 4 (25 marks) A gas stream containing 10 mol% hydrogen and equimolar amounts

QUESTION 4 (25 marks) A gas stream containing 10 mol% hydrogen and equimolar amounts of n-Hexane and n-Heptane at 200 C is fed into a reactor at a rate of 100 mol/h. n-Hexane and n- Heptane are converted to methyl-cyclopentane and toluene respectively in the chemical reactions shown below. The reactor operates isothermally at 200 C and both reactions go to completion. C8H14 (g) CsH CH3 (g) + H2 (9) C7H16 (g) CsHSCH; (g) + 4H2 (9) (a) Draw a fully labelled process flow diagram and indicate clearly all information related to the streams. (3 marks) (b) Calculate the extent of all reactions occurring in the reactor and the molar flowrates of all components in the product stream. (7 marks) (c) Determine the standard heats of reaction for all reactions occurring in the reactor. (4 marks) (d) Calculate the heat transfer rate (kW) of this process. State the reference conditions clearly (11 marks) 4b) 45 mol/h, 45 mol/h, 235 mol/h 4c) 60.5 kJ/mol, 237.8 kJ/mol 4d) 3.81 kW
