Cyclopentadiene and cyclohexanone are combined in a reactor


Cyclopentadiene and cyclohexanone are combined in a reactor and undergo an addition reaction.  The adduct can either have an endo or exo conformation.  For the application your plant has only the endo conformation is desired.  The selectivity of the reaction is 150.  The yield is 0.9.  The reactants are fed to the reactor at a rate of 400 mol/hour each.

a) How many moles of the endo conformer are present in the effluent?

b) How many moles of the exo conformer are present in the effluent?

c) How many moes of unreached cyclohexanone and cyclopentadiene are present in the effluent?
