Ch00se a chemical reacti0n inv0lving tw0 reactants forming one product (i.e., A+B+C). The reactants are allowed t0 react in a reactor. The products leaving the reactor are c0mpletely separated from the unreacted reactants in a separator. The unreacted reactants leave the separator and are purged before recycled and mixed with the feed before being fed into the react0r. The feed stream is to c0ntain an inert substance. Assign a value for the mole fraction of the inert substance in the stream (Xio), the fractional conversi0n of A to C (fsp) and the fraction of the stream leaving the separator that is purged (yp). With a basis of 1 m0l of feed, calculate the total m0les fed into the reactor, the amount of pr0duct (C) produced and the overall c0nversion of A to C. Also perform a full balance on the wh0le process, i.e., calculate the molar flow rates and composition of each stream. Note: All assigned values must be greater than zer0. Write the final answers on the diagram
