Consider the reaction of n-pentane (C5H12) with steam (H2O) to form hydrogen (H2) and carbon dioxide (CO2)

Question:

Consider the reaction of n-pentane (C5H12) with steam (H2O) to form hydrogen (H2) and carbon dioxide (CO2) at 600 K. Consider a molar feed ratio of 1 mol C5H12 to 10 mol H2O at a pressure of 0.5 bar and a temperature of 600 K. You may assume Δhor xn = const.

(a) What is the equilibrium composition?

(b) Repeat part

(a) but consider CO as a possible product in addition to H2 and CO2. Comment on how your answer compares to part (a).
