Answer:
11.8.4 Distillation Columns
Distillation columns present a hazard in that they contain large inventories of flammable boiling liquid, usually under pressure. There are a number of situations which may lead to loss of containment of this liquid.
The conditions of operation of the equipment associated with the distillation column, particularly the reboiler and bottoms pump, are severe, so that failure is more probable.
The reduction of hazard in distillation columns by the limitation of inventory has been discussed above. A distillation column has a large input of heat at the reboiler and a large output at the condenser. If cooling at the condenser is lost, the column may suffer overpressure. It is necessary to protect against this by higher pressure design, relief valves, or HIPS. On the other hand, loss of steam at the reboiler can cause underpressure in the column. On columns operating at or near atmospheric pressure, full vacuum design, vacuum breakers, or inert gas injection is needed for protection. Deposition of flammable materials on packing surfaces has led to many fires on opening of distillation column for maintenance.
Another hazard is overpressure due to heat radiation from fire. Again pressure relief devices are required to provide protection.
The protection of distillation columns is one of the topics treated in detail in codes for pressure relief such as APIRP 521. Likewise, it is one of the principal applications of trip systems.
Another quite different hazard in a distillation column is the ingress of water. The rapid expansion of the water as it flashes to steam can create very damaging overpressures.
Answer:
A pure element is a pure substance that has only one kind of atoms. If a substance is present in nature in elemental form, it means that the element is not very reactive as reactive elements exist in the form of their compounds with atoms of other elements. Element can be categorized as a metal or a non-metal based on some physical observable properties. Generally, metals are shiny lustrous solids and nonmetals are gases. Metals are good conductors of heat and electricity whereas nonmetals are not conductors.

CBr4 is a symmetric tetrahedral molecule so it will be non-polar.
Answer:
<u></u>
Explanation:
<u>1. Balanced molecular equation</u>
<u>2. Mole ratio</u>
<u>3. Moles of HNO₃</u>
- Number of moles = Molarity × Volume in liters
- n = 0.600M × 0.0100 liter = 0.00600 mol HNO₃
<u>4. Moles Ba(OH)₂</u>
- n = 0.700M × 0.0310 liter = 0.0217 mol
<u>5. Limiting reactant</u>
Actual ratio:
Since the ratio of the moles of HNO₃ available to the moles of Ba(OH)₂ available is less than the theoretical mole ratio, HNO₃ is the limiting reactant.
Thus, 0.006 moles of HNO₃ will react completely with 0.003 moles of Ba(OH)₂ and 0.0217 - 0.003 = 0.0187 moles will be left over.
<u>6. Final molarity of Ba(OH)₂</u>
- Molarity = number of moles / volume in liters
- Molarity = 0.0187 mol / (0.0100 + 0.0031) liter = 0.456M
