CDP4-HB

The gas-phase reaction between chlorine and methane to form carbon tetrachloride and hydrochloric acid is to be carried out at 75 and at 950 kPa in a continuous-flow reactor. The vapor pressure of carbon tetrachloride at 75 is approximately 95 kPa. Set up a stoichiometric table for this reaction with phase change. Calculate the conversion of methane at which condensation first begins. Plot the concentrations and molar flow rates of each species as well as the total molar flow rate as a function of conversion for a stoichiometric feed. The volumetric flow rate is 0.4 dm3/s.
