Oxidation of Naphthalene to Phthalic Anhydride

Derivation

      For negligible volume change with reaction . Therefore neglect mole change, the

                                                                       F_T = F_T0

      Calculate the mean molecular weight

                  

                                                                    

                                                                   

                                     

                                                              

      For constant total pressure and P_A = P₀y_A, we multiply by the total pressure P₀
