Question: The gas phase reaction: 2 A ( g ) + B ( g ) - > D ( g ) + 2 E ( g

The gas phase reaction:
2 A(g)+B(g)-> D(g)+2 E(g)
is taking place. 8 mol/s A and 40% excess B are mixed and fed to the reactor at 200\deg C. The conversion of component A in the reactor is 80% and the outlet temperature is 330\deg C. Using the heat of formation method, taking the elements in their standard states at 25\deg C as the reference state, utilize the following data:
Species Cp [kJ/(mol K)] H\deg f (kJ/mol)
A(g)0.04-50
B(g)0.0340
D(g)0.030
E(g)0.05-240
to determine the:
Questions for Madison Burlew:
