Please, solve both by Polymath and by hand!
Analyze the material balance of the reactor in which the ammonia synthesis reaction reaches the equilibrium state: N2 + 3H2 = 2NH3 (Kx = 0,1878) The feed to the reactor at 219.09 kmol/h is produced by mixing the fresh feed stream with the recycle stream that is also containing some ammonia. The resulting composition of the reactor feed stream is: X11 = 0.24531, X12 = 0.73592, X13 = 0.01330, X14 = 0.00183, X15 = 0.00365. The mixture before the reaction and the post-reaction mixture contain the same components: 1 - nitrogen, 2 - hydrogen, 3 - ammonia, 4 - argon, 5 - methane.
