Description

We use the Peng Robinson equation of state to compute the correction factor due to gas-phase nonideality as a result of the high pressure applied in the ammonia synthesis. We also compute the extent of reaction. Plots of these two quantities versus pressure for temperatures ranging from 500K to 800K are presented.
