Result 1 of 1 for The Carbon Monoxide is reacted with Hydrogen to produce Methanol. Calculate from the reaction: (a) The
Stoichiometric Ratio of H2 to CO. (b) kmol of CH30H produced per kmol of CO reacted. (c) The weight ratio of CO to H2 if they are fed to
reactor in stoichiometric proportion. (d) The quantity of CO required producing 1250 kg of CH3OH. Reaction: co + 2H2 CH3OH

Consider the parallel reactions
A- C and A → D, where C is the desired product and D is the undesired product, in this
case, selectivity is given as
moles of C (desired product) formed
moles of D (undesired product) formed
Selectivity of C relative to D
Selectivity is also defined as the ratio of amount of the limiting reactant to the desired
product to the amount of it reacted to produce the undesired product. If yield is 100%, then the
selectivity is 1.
Ex. 4.1: The carbon monoxide is reacted with hydrogen to produce methanol. Calculate
from the reaction : (a) The stoichiometric ratio af H2 to CO. (b) kmol of CH3OH produced per
kmol CO reacted. (c) The weight ratio of CO to H, if both are fed to reactor in stoichiometric
proportion. (d) The quantity of CO required to produce 1000 kg of CH,OH.
Sol. :
Reaction : CO + 2H2 → CH,OH
From reaction, we have,
Stoichiometric coefficient of CO = a = 1
Stoichiometric coefficient of H2 = b = 2

N, + 3 H, + 2 NH,
Calculate : (a) The molal flow rate of hydrogen corresponding to nitrogen feed rate of
25 kmol/h if they are fed in the stoichiometric proportion.
(b) The kg of ammonia produced per hour if percent conversion is 25 and nitrogen feed
rate is 25 kmol/h.
Hint : Here basis of calculation is defined which is 25 kmol/h of N2 fed. Write down chemical reaction
