Acetic acid DOH) is formed through a series of three oxidation reactions starting from ethane (C₂H6). The reactions produce ethanol (C₂H5OH), which is transformed into acetaldehyde (CH3CHO), and finally acetic acid. (1) (2) (3) 2C₂H6 + 0₂ 2C₂H5OH + 0₂ 2CH3CHO + +0₂ 2C₂H5OH 2CH3CHO + 2CH3COOH 2H₂O The reactor feed contains ethane (100 mol/s) and air (350 mol/s). Write equations for the mole flows of each component as functions of feed rate and extents (1, E2, and 3). Include the mole balance for nitrogen.
