X_A = (C^'*∆T)/(-ΔH_r1-(C^''-C^')*∆T)
This formula uses 5 Variables

Variables Used

Reactant Conversion - Reactant Conversion gives us the percentage of reactants converted into products, displayed as the percentage as a decimal between 0 and 1.
Mean Specific Heat of Unreacted Stream - (Measured in Joule per Kilogram per K) - Mean Specific Heat of Unreacted Stream is the heat required to raise the temperature of one gram of a substance by one Celsius degree of the unreacted reactant after reaction occurred.
Change in Temperature - (Measured in Kelvin) - The Change in Temperature is the difference between the initial and final temperature.
Heat of Reaction at Initial Temperature - (Measured in Joule Per Mole) - Heat of Reaction at Initial Temperature is change in enthalpy in chemical reaction at the initial temperature.
Mean Specific Heat of Product Stream - (Measured in Joule per Kilogram per K) - Mean Specific Heat of Product Stream is the heat required to raise the temperature of one gram of a substance by one Celsius degree, of Product Stream.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Mean Specific Heat of Unreacted Stream: 7.98 Joule per Kilogram per K --> 7.98 Joule per Kilogram per K No Conversion Required
Change in Temperature: 50 Kelvin --> 50 Kelvin No Conversion Required
Heat of Reaction at Initial Temperature: -885 Joule Per Mole --> -885 Joule Per Mole No Conversion Required
Mean Specific Heat of Product Stream: 14.63 Joule per Kilogram per K --> 14.63 Joule per Kilogram per K No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

X_A = (C^'*∆T)/(-ΔH_r1-(C^''-C^')*∆T) --> (7.98*50)/(-(-885)-(14.63-7.98)*50)

Evaluating ... ...

X_A = 0.722171945701357

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.722171945701357 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

0.722171945701357 ≈ 0.722172 <-- Reactant Conversion

What are Adiabatic Conditions?

Adiabatic conditions refer to conditions under which overall heat transfer across the boundary between the thermodynamic system and the surroundings is absent. Examples of processes proceeding under adiabatic conditions and applied in engineering are expansion and compression of gas in a piston-type machine, the flow of a fluid medium in heat-insulated pipes, channels and nozzles, throttling and setting of turbomachines and distribution of acoustic and shock waves.

What is Specific Heat?

it is the amount of heat that must be added to one unit of mass of the substance in order to cause an increase of one unit in temperature.
