A reactor is supplied with 10 moles glucose and excess oxygen to produce 40% CO2, 60% H2O, what is the rate of products?(a) 25 mole(b) 50 mole(c) 75 mole(d) 100 moleThe question was posed to me in an online quiz.This interesting question is from Element Material Balances topic in division The Chemical Reaction Equation & Stoichometry, Material Balances for Processes Involving Reaction and Multiple Units of Basic Chemical Engineering

Answer» CORRECT answer is (a) 25 mole

Explanation: The reaction is C6H12O6 + 6O2 -> 6CO2 + 6H2O, Let the rate of products be P. Element BALANCES, C: 10(6) = 6*0.4P(1), => P = 25 mole.
