A factory, producing methanol, is based on the reaction :
`CO+2H_(2)rarr CH_(3)OH` ltBRgt Hydrogen and carbon monoxide are obtained by the reaction
`CH_(4)+H_(2)Orarr CO+3H_(2)`
Three units of factory namely, the "reformer" for the `H_(2)` and CO production, the "methanol reactor" for production of methonol adn a "separator" to separate `CH_(3)OH` form `CO and H_(2)` are schematically shown in figure.

The flow of methonal from valve-3 is `10^(3)mol//sec.` The factory is so designed that `(2)/(3)` of the CO is converted to `CH_(3)OH.` Assume that the feromer reaction goes to completion.
`CO+2H_(2)rarrCH_(3)OH Delta_(r) H=-100 R`
Amount of energy released in methanol reactor in1 minute :

A

1200 kcal

B

12000 kcal

C

6000 kcal

D
