Air at 7S°F and14.6 though a cfm(cubic ft per minute) and the The flow rate is 48000 psia flows though a rectangular duct of Ix2
IgorLugansk [536]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

Air is at 75^{o}F and 14.6 psia.

\varepsilon = 0.00015 ft,     Flow rate, (Q) = 48000 ft^{3}/m

(a)  Formula to calculate hydraulic radius (r_{H}) is as follows.

              r_{H} = \frac{\text{free flow area}}{\text{wet perimeter}}

                          = \frac{2 \times 1}{2(1) + 2(2)}

                          = \frac{1}{3} ft

Formula for equivalent diameter is as follows.

                     D_{eq} = 4 \times r_{H}

                                    = 4 \times \frac{1}{3} ft  

                                    = \frac{4}{3} ft

(b)    Formula for velocity floe is as follows.

                         Q = VA

                     V = \frac{Q}{A}

                        = \frac{48000}{2 \times 1} ft/min

                        = 24000 ft/min

(c)   Formula to calculate Reynold's number is as follows.

         R_{e} = \frac{D \times V \times \rho}{\mu}

                   = \frac{\frac{4}{3} \times 24000 \times 0.0744}{0.0443}  (as \rho = 0.0744 lb/ft^{3} and \mu = 0.0443 lb/ft. hr)

                   = 53742.66 hr/min  

As 1 hr = 10 min. So, 53742.66 hr/min \times \frac{60 min}{1 hr}

                            = 3224559.6

(d)   Formula to calculate pressure drop (\Delta P) is as follows.

              \frac{\Delta P}{L} = \frac{4f \rho V^{2}}{2Dg_{c}}

Putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

               \frac{\Delta P}{L} = \frac{4f \rho V^{2}}{2Dg_{c}}

                      = \frac{4 \times 0.00015 \times 100 \times 0.0744 \times (24000)^{2}}{2 \times \frac{4}{3} \times {4}{3}}

                      = 6.238 lb/ft^{2}

Solids have particles that stay in place and vibrate (least energy)
Liquids have enough energy to slide past each other and have no definite shape.
Gas has a lot of energy and moves freely with no certain shape or volume

How many electrons in the same atom can share the quantum number n = 2?
melisa1 [442]
With the principle quantum number being 2, the maximum number that can share this is 8. You can use the general formula 2n^2 to calculate this number (n=quantum level), or you can use the concept of quantum numbers (n, l, m, s) to justify this answer.

Isooctane, C8H18, is the component of gasoline from which the term octane rating derives.
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

a) C₈H₁₈ + (23/2)O₂ -----> 8CO₂ + 9H₂O

b) Mass of CO₂ produced annually from this combustion of isooctane gasoline = 1.12 × 10⁵ Kg

c) CO₂ produced from the combustion of the gasoline in a year will occupy 5.632 × 10⁷ L

d) There needs to be a minimum of 1.752 × 10⁷ moles of air and 3.92 × 10⁸ L of air for the oxygen to be in excess all through the year of gasoline combustion.

Explanation:

a) C₈H₁₈ + (23/2)O₂ -----> 8CO₂ + 9H₂O

b) C₈H₁₈ has a density of 0.792 mg/L.

Since density = mass/volume;

mass = density × volume

Mass of C₈H₁₈ with 4.6 x 10^10 L volume = 0.792 × 4.6 x 10^10 = 3.643 × 10^10 mg = 3.643 × 10⁷ g.

To obtain the mass of CO₂ produced, we need the number of moles of C₈H₁₈ that burned.

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Molar mass of C₈H₁₈ = (8×12) + 18 = 114g/mol

Number of moles of C₈H₁₈ = (3.643 × 10⁷)/114 = (3.2 × 10⁵) moles.

From the chemical reaction,

1 mole of C₈H₁₈ burns to give 8 moles of CO₂

(3.2 × 10⁵) moles will give 8 × 3.2 × 10⁵ = (2.56 × 10⁶) moles of CO₂

Mass of CO₂ produced = number of moles × Molar mass

Molar mass of CO₂ = 44 g/mol

Mass of CO₂ produced = 2.56 × 10⁶ × 44 = 1.12 × 10⁸ g = 1.12 × 10⁵ kg

c) 1 mole of any gas at stp occupies 22.4L

2.56 × 10⁶ moles of CO₂ will occupy 2.56 × 10⁶ × 22.4 = 5.632 × 10⁷ L

d) 1 mole of C₈H₁₈ requires 23/2 moles of O₂ for complete combustion yearly.

3.2 × 10⁵ moles would require 3.2 × 10⁵ × 23/2 = 3.68 × 10⁶ moles of O₂

O₂ makes up 21% of the air

That is,

0.21 moles of O₂ would be contained in 1 mole of air

3.68 × 10⁶ moles of O₂ would be contained in (3.68 × 10⁶ × 1)/0.21 = 1.752 × 10⁷ moles of air.

1 mole of any gas at stp occupies 22.4L

1.752 × 10⁷ of air will occupy

1.752 × 10⁷ × 22.4/1 = 3.92 × 10⁸ L of air!
