Ammonia is synthesised at 200 bar and 773 K by the reaction N2+3H2↔2NH3. The yield of ammonia is 0.45 mol/mol of fresh feed. Flow sheet for the process (along with available compositions) is shown below.
The single pass conversion for H2 in the reactor is 20%. The amount of H2 lost in the purge as a PERCENTAGE of H2 in fresh feed is

Correct : c
