Example 1.4:  Calculate the composition of the product if the system described in the previous example is operated under constant volume conditions.

 

Solution:  The reaction is conducted at constant volume (ε = 0).  We can use a procedure similar to the one used in previous example.  The values of M, N, R, and S are still the same. 

Conversion, X = 0.6
