A reactor supplied with CO2 and H2O, the product contains 40% CO2, 30% H2O and 30% H2CO3, what is the ratio of feed rate of CO2 and rate of products?(a) 0.3(b) 0.4(c) 0.7(d) 0.9

Answer» Right answer is (c) 0.7

Explanation: The reaction is CO2 + H2O -> H2CO3. Let the rate of CO2, H2O and H2CO3 be F, W and P respectively. Element balances, C: F(1) = 0.4P(1) + 0.3P(1), => F/P = 0.7.
