Good day,
I want to prepare MgAl2O4 spinel via solution combustion method using nitrates as oxidizers and urea as fuel. I calculated the O/F = 4.16. I am stuck here and don't know how to proceed.....
Please I need help on how to calculate the stoichiometric amounts of the fuel and the oxidizers.
Equation of the reaction:
2Al(NO3)3 + Mg(NO3)2 + CH4N2O ===== MgAl2O4 + N2 + CO2 + H2O
