Ammonia when heated at a temperature of 800 °C, in the presence of a platinum (Pt) catalyst and oxygen, leads to the formation of
nitric oxide (NO), and water. A large amount of heat is liberated during the reaction. The chemical reaction can be represented as:

NH3 + O2 → NO + H2O

Calculate the heat amount to be supplied or eliminated for each 10 kmol/h of mixture, if you have an ammonia conversion of 80%,
with 20% excess air over the theoretical. Consider that the average air composition is 21% oxygen and 79% nitrogen.

To calculate heat capacities, use a reference temperature of 25 °C.

The standard enthalpy of formation (ΔH°reaction) should be converted from kJ/mol to kJ/kmol.

NOTE 1: When ΔH°reaction is positive the reaction is endothermic and when ΔH°reaction is negative the reaction is exothermic.
NOTE 2: When the lost heat is positive, heat is released in the reactor, and when the lost heat is negative, heat is supplied to the
reactor.
