The feed gas (100mol/min) to a methanol synthesis reactor is composed of 75mol/min H2, 12 mol/min CO, 8mol/min CO2, and 5mol/min N2. The outlet is found to have some unreacted feed with the products including 52.7mol/min H2 and 1.7mol/min H2). Determine the outlet flows (mol/min) for all species:H2, CO2, CO, N2, CH3OH, H2O

2H2+CO gives CH3OH

H2+CO2 give CO+H20
