The formula to calculate the Reactant Conversion (XA) is:
\[ X_A = 1 - \frac{N_A}{N_{A0}} \]
Reactant Conversion gives us the percentage of reactants converted into products. Enter the percentage as a decimal between 0 and 1. Number of Moles of Unreacted Reactant-A refers to the number of moles of unreacted reactant in the system. The Number of Moles of Reactant-A Fed refers to the amount of reactant supplied.
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula:
\[ X_A = 1 - \frac{9}{30} \approx 0.7 \]
The Reactant Conversion is approximately 0.7.
