A feed containing 10 mol %10 \text{ mol \%} propylene, 15 mol %15 \text{ mol \%} ammonia and rest air is charged into a reactor to produce acrylonitrile (C3H3NC_3H_3N) according to the following reaction: 2C3H6+2NH3+3O22C3H3N+6H2O2C_3H_6 + 2NH_3 + 3O_2 \rightarrow 2C_3H_3N + 6H_2O Assume air contains 80 mol % N280 \text{ mol \% } N_2 and 20 mol % O220 \text{ mol \% } O_2. If the conversion of the limiting reactant is 30%30\%, the composition of C3H3NC_3H_3N (in mol %) in the product stream is ___________(rounded off to two decimal places).
