Ethane is chlorinated in a continuous reactor: HCI C₂H+Cla-C₂HCl Some of the product monochloroethane is further chlorinated in an undesired side reaction C₂H₂CI+Cl₂-C₂H4Cl₂ + HCl a. Take a basis of 100.0 mol of C₂HCl produced. Assume that the feed contains only ethane and chlorine and that all of the chlorine is consumed. How many degrees of freedom remain (use atomic balances)? b. The reactor is designed to yield a 11.0% conversion of ethane and a selectivity of 20.0 mol C₂H,Cl/mol C₂HCl, with a negligible amount of chlorine in the product gas. Calculate the feed ratio (mol Cl₂/mol C₂H). Calculate the fractional yield of monochloroethane.
