Coordinate
(ε)
For a reaction, the changes in the number "
of moles (ni) of the species present in the reaction chamber"
are in direct proportion to the stoichiometric numbers (vi)."
dni = ν i d ε .....(13.3)
Example
The following reaction consumes 10 mols of methane,
CH 4 + 2O2 → CO2 + 2H 2O
dnCO2 10 dnH 2O 20
= = = 10, = = 10
ν CO2 1 ν H 2O 2
Reaction coordinate (ε) characterizes the extent
or degree to which a reaction has taken place.
∫ dni = ∫ ν i d ε
nio 0
ni − nio = ν i (ε − 0)
ni = nio + ν iε
Note: At initial state prior to reaction, ε=0
ni nio + ν iε
yi or xi = =
n no + νε
Express yi as functions of ε.
nio + ν iε no =∑ nio = 2 + 1 + 1 + 4 = 8
yi =
no + νε ν = ∑νi = 1 + 3 − 1 − 1 = 2
2−ε 1− ε 1+ ε 4 + 3ε
yCH 4 = y H 2O = yCO = yH 2 =
8 + 2ε 8 + 2ε 8 + 2ε 8 + 2ε
For

ReacCons
dni = ∑ ν ij d ε j

ni − nio = ∑ ν ij (ε j − 0)
j
ni = nio + ∑ ν ij ε j
j
∑ ni = n = ∑ nio + ∑ ∑ ν ijε j

So mole fraction of species i,
