Question:

The 10/25/93 issue of Chemical and Engineering News suggests that the thermodynamic equilibrium in the isomerization of n-butene (CH3CH = CHCH3, a mix of cis and trans isomers) is reached at a temperature of 350°C using a zeolite catalyst. The products are isobutene and 1-butene (CH2=CHCH2CH3). The isobutene is the desired product, for further reaction to MTBE. Determine the equilibrium composition of this product stream at 1 bar.
