Stoichiometry - calculation problem
Posted: Wed Apr 20, 2022 10:35 am
Hi folks,
would like to verify the following calculation:
How much 63 % HNO3 will the yield be from 1 700 tonnes NH3 (for 24 hours process): НN3 --> A --> B --> HNO3
Synthesis equations (Ostwald process):
4NH3 + 5O2 --> 4NO + 6H2O
2NO + O2 --> N2O4
3N2O4 + 2H2O --> 4HNO3 + 2NO
moles NH3:HNO3 = 1:1
n (NH3) = 100 mole => 6 300 tonnes HNO3
Is this correct?
Thanks for helping,
Ned
