What happens if reaction occurs ?
What is a species ?
Need to do atom balance !
stoichiometry of the reaction!
Note multiples are also balanced
What is the stoichiometry of the feed?
stoichiometric ratios
Feed Composition of reactants!
When the feed is not stoichiometric !
What is the limiting reactant ?
Fractional excess ! (Nf - Ns)/Ns
Fractional Conversion: N
/N
(same as mass ?)
