The accumulation in a steady state combustion process, burning 1 kg mole of carbon with 1 kg mole of oxygen thereby producing 1 kg mole of carbon dioxide, is _____________ kg mole?

Correct answer: B. 0

  • A. 1
  • B. 0
  • C. 16
  • D. 44

Explanation

At steady state, the amount of material inside the system does not change with time, so accumulation is zero. The reaction can still proceed because the input and output rates balance overall.
