Problem $87$

Propane $($vapor$)$ at $400C$ is fed to a reactor at a rate of $100mo\frac{l}{s}.$ In the reactor,

propane $(C_3{H}_8)$ undergoes decomposition to acetylene $(C_2{H}_2),$ methane $(C{H}_4)$ and

hydrogen. The reactor is being supplied with $12,000kW$ power and operates at a

temperature of $350C.$ Calculate the composition of the gaseous stream exiting the

reactor and the conversion of propane achieved in this operation.
