The following reactions take place in a steady state, continuous
reactor:
C2H6------>C2H4 + H2

C2H6 + H2---->2CH4
The feed contains 85 mole% ethane (C2H6) and the balance
inerts (I). The fractional conversion of ethane is 0.501 and the
yield of ethylene is 0.471. Determine the molar composition of
the product gas.

Ethylene oxides is produced by the catalytic oxidation of ethylene: C2H4 (g)+ (1/2)O2---> C2H4O (g) An undesired competing reaction is the combustion of ethylene to CO2. The feed to a reactor contains 2 mol C2H4/mol O2. The conversion and yield in the reactor are respectively 25% and 0.70 mol C2H4O produced/mol C2H4 consumed. A multiple-unit process separates the reactor outlet stream component: C2H4 and O2 are recycled to the reactor, C2H4O is sold, and CO2 and H2O are discarded. The...

Please solve for only problem 2. The first problem is needed for the 2nd one. Please show all work and thank you. 1.) Oxidative dehydrogenation of ethane is the conversion of ethane with oxygen to yield ethylene and water. It is a cleaner and more efficient alternative to the widely used steam cracking process for ethylene production from ethane. a.
