Answer:

1) Sv = 0.4584 m³/Kg...assuming steam as an ideal gas

% deviation from the values in the steam tables

⇒ % dev = 45 %

2) mass air = 272.617 Kg; assuming air to be an ideal gas

Explanation:

ideal gas:

PV = RTn

molar volume:

⇒ V/n = RT/P

∴ P = 90 psi * ( 0.06895 bar/psi ) = 6.2055 bar

∴ T = 650 F = 343.33 °C = 616.33 K

∴ R = 0.08314 bar.L/mol.K

⇒ V/n = (( 0.08314 )*(616.33 K )) / 6.2055 bar

⇒ V/n = 8.2574 L/mol * ( m³/1000L ) = 8.2574 E-3 m³/mol

specific volume ( Sv ):

∴ Mw = 18.01528 g/mol

⇒ Sv = 8.2574 E-3 m³/mol * ( mol / 18.01528 g ) * ( 1000 g/Kg )

⇒ Sv = 0.4584 m³/Kg

steam table:

∴ P = 6.2055 bar ≅ 6 bar → Sv = 0.3157 m³/Kg

⇒ % deviation = (( 0.4584 - 0.3157 ) / 0.3157) * 100

⇒ % dev = 45.2 %; significant value, assuming  steam to be a ideal gas

2) mass air, assuming ideal gas:

∴ V = 20ft * 35ft * 10ft = 7000ft³ * ( 28.3168 L/ft³ ) = 198217.6 L

∴ P = 17 psi * ( 0.06895 bar/psi ) = 1.172 bar

∴ T = 75 °F = 23.89 °C = 296.89 K

∴ R = 0.08314 bar.L/K.mol

⇒ n air = PV/RT = (( 1.172 )*( 198217.6 )) / (( 0.08314 )*( 296.89 ))

⇒ n air = 9411.616 mol air

∴ Mw air = 28.966 g/mol

⇒ mass air = 9411.616 mol * ( 28.966 g/mol ) = 272616.892 g = 272.617 Kg

Which term is used to describe the reactant that is used up completely and controls the amount of product that can be produced d
givi [52]

Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A limiting reagent is defined as a reagent that completely gets consumed in a chemical reaction. A limiting reagent limits the formation of products.

For example, we have given 5 mol of A and the reaction is 2A + 4B \rightarrow 2AB

Whereas when 4 mol B will react with 2 mol of A. Hence, 8 mol of B will react with 4 mol A as follows.

                        \frac{2}{4} \times 8 = 4 mol

As, the given moles of A is more than the required moles. Thus, it is considered as an excess reagent.

Hence, B is a limiting reagent because it limits the formation of products.

Thus, we can conclude that limiting reactant is the term used to describe the reactant that is used up completely and controls the amount of product that can be produced during a chemical reaction.

Calculate the vapor pressure of a solution of 0.99 mol of cholesterol in 5.4 mol of toluene at 32°c. pure toluene has a vapor pr
blondinia [14]
We can get the vapor pressure of the solution from this formula:
Pv(solu) = n P°v
when n is the mole fraction of toluene so we can get by substitution in this formula: 
n = moles of toluene / (moles of cholesterol + moles of toluene)
   = 5.4 / ( 0.99 + 5.4) = 0.85
so by substitution in vapor pressure formula:
∴ Pv(solu) = 0.85 *41 = 34.85 atm
