Contoh Soal Neraca Massa dengan

Reaksi
Reaksi pembakaran propana mengikuti persamaan reaksi:
C3H8 + 5O2 3CO2 + 4H2O
Laju propana umpan sebesar 100 mol/s dan udara yang digunakan
sebesar 3000 mol/s ( udara terdiri dari 21% O2 dan sisanya N2 ). Jika
diketahui konversi propana sebesar 95%, maka hitunglah komposisi
keluaran reaktor.
