Question
The production of methyl bromide is a liquid phase reaction and follows a reaction first order kinetics.
???? + ??3??2 → ??3?? + ????2
The reaction is contracted in an isothermally operated semi-beater reactor. One aqueous solution of methylamine (B) with a concentration of 0.025 mol/dm³ is fed into the reactor at a rate of 0.05 dm³/s which is initially filled with a solution also aqueous bromine cyanide (A) with a volume of 5 dm³ and concentration 0.05 mol/dm³. The reaction rate constant k is defined by:
? = 2.2 ??3 /? ???
Based on this information, simulate the reactants of the reactants and products in the reactor.

C,H,CH; + H, C,H, + CH4 A stream of toluene is mixed with a recycle stream and enters a reactor along with a stream of pure hydrogen. The reaction products at 550 °C enter a condenser, where they are cooled to 41.0 °C. A vapor stream containing Y5CH, = 0.600 mol CH,/mol leaves the process, and a liquid stream containing x66 = 0.810 mol benzene/mol and x6 = 0.190 mol toluene/mol enters a distillation column. The distillate of the column leaves the process at n7 = 668.0 mol/h and contains y7h = 0.9000 mol benzene/mol and y7 = 0.1000 mol toluene/mol. The bottoms of the column contains X8b = 0.250 mol benzene/mol and xgt = 0.750 mol toluene/mol and is recycled back to the fresh feed. Hydrogen is fed into the process at ni = 1183 mol H,/h.

- A batch process is operated with the following sequence. The feed to the batch process consists of a solution of 500 L of ethanol with 120 mole of A and 120 mole of B. If the temperature of the solution is sufficient, A and B will react to form P (the desired product): A (eth) + B (eth) → P (s) DHreact = − 250 kJ/mol (1) product P is sparingly soluble in ethanol, which helps facilitate its removal from the reaction solution. It can be assumed that the reaction rate is first-order in both the concentration of A (cA ) and B (cB ), and so second-order overall: -r A = k c A cB (2) The batch process consists of the following FOUR steps: Initially, the tank is empty. 1.
