Lecture

Chemical Reactions: Stoichiometry

Description

This lecture covers the stoichiometry of chemical reactions, focusing on the combustion of ammonia to form nitric oxide. It includes calculations for the ratio of oxygen reactant to nitric oxide formed, oxygen feed rate in excess conditions, and determining the limiting reactant in batch and continuous reactors. The lecture also discusses the extent of reaction, mass of nitric oxide produced, and the concept of fractional conversion. Additionally, it explores the formation of formaldehyde from methane and oxygen, analyzing product stream compositions and selectivity. The lecture emphasizes the application of degree-of-freedom analysis and mass balance equations to solve reaction engineering problems.
