The reactions: C2H6 -------> C2H4 +H2 C2H6 + H2------> 2CH4 They are carried out in a continuous reactor at steady state. The feed contains 85 mol% C2H6 and 15% inerts. The conversion fraction of ethane is 0.501 and the yield (based on consumption of limiting reactant) fractional of ethylene is 0.471. Calculate the composition at the outlet of the reactor and the selectivity of ethylene for methane production. Construct degrees of freedom table, determine the sequence of solution and validate results with checking. Use method of reaction progress or rate of reaction

Question
The reactions:
C2H6 -------> C2H4 +H2
C2H6 + H2------> 2CH4
They are carried out in a continuous reactor at steady state. The feed contains 85 mol% C2H6 and 15% inerts. The conversion fraction of ethane is 0.501 and the yield (based on consumption of limiting reactant) fractional of ethylene is 0.471. Calculate the composition at the outlet of the reactor and the selectivity of ethylene for methane production. Construct degrees of freedom table, determine the sequence of solution and validate results with checking. Use method of reaction progress or rate of reaction
