Ethylene gas and steam at 473.15 K (200°C) and atmospheric pressure are fed to a reaction process as an equi-molar mixture. The process produces ethanol with complete conversion by the reaction:

The liquid ethanol exits the process at 298.15 K (25°C). What is the heat transfer associated with this overall process per mole of ethanol produced?

Calculate using Heat of Reaction method and Heat of Formation method.

Take and . (HINT: Take 100 mol basis).

    Ethylene oxide is produced by the catalytic oxidation of ethylene: C2H4 (g) + 1/2 O2 (g) --> C2H4O (g) An undesired competing reaction is the combustion of ethylene to CO2. The feed to a reactor contains 2 mol C2H4/mol O2. The conversion and yield in the reactor are respectively 25% and 0.70 mol C2H4O produced/mol C2H4 consumed. A multiple-unit process separates the reactor outlet stream components: C2H4 and O2 are recycled to the reactor, C2H4O is sold, and CO2 and...
