6. Discussion
Chemical engineers are concerned with the design and development of processes which
involve changes in the bulk properties of matter. To make a quantitative estimation of these
processes, chemical equations showing the quantities of reactants and products are used. Though
internationally we follow SI system of units, a chemical engineer is expected to be familiar and
conversant with all the systems so far adopted for measuring and expressing various quantities.
A system is referred to a substances or a group of substances under consideration and process is
to the changes take place within that system. Thus nitrogen, hydrogen and ammonia may
constitute a system. The reaction of nitrogen, hydrogen to form ammonia considered as a
process. Within a isolated system, the mass of a system remains constant regardless of the
changes taking place within the system. This statement is known as the law of conservations
of mass and it is the basis of the so called material balance of a process. (The first law of
