Suppose your principal objective is to maximize the selectivity of monochloroethane production relative to dichloroethane produc

tion. would you design the reactor for a high or low conversion of ethane? explain your answer. (hint: if the reactor contents remained in the reactor long enough for most of the ethane in the feed to be consumed, what would the main product constituent probably be?) what additional processing steps would almost certainly be carried out to make the process economically sound?

We are given the series of chemical reactions:

Ethane is chlorinated in a continuous reactor:

C2H6 + Cl2 --> C2H5Cl + HCl

 

But some of the product monochloroethane becomes further chlorinated by an undesired side reaction:

C2H5Cl + Cl2 --> C2H4Cl2 + HCl 

 

So to avoid the product monochloroethane to be further chlorinated, there must be fast processing or fast conversion of ethane so that there would less time for further chlorination. Hence we must design the reactor for high conversion of ethane.

 

To make the process economical, there must be a downstream separation step that would separate the main product monochloroethane from the undesired product dichloroethane.

The law of variability says that​ "the greater the random variability either demanded of the process or inherent in the process
Aneli [31]

Answer:

C. the less productive the process​ is.

Explanation:

Variability refers to the property when the given substance are highly probable to change and that the results accordingly change.

In that condition there is no drawn pattern for such change, as it might or might not change according to the expected scale and level.

In this, if there is high variability, then the results can be that the resulting process will be least productive, as there are so many uncontrollable changes.

Accordingly, since no proper management of the related process is possible, the results will not be productive.

Information on Wolfen Company's direct labor costs for the month of January follows: Actual direct labor rate $5.00 Standard dir
xeze [42]

Answer:

Standard Rate = $ 5.65

Explanation:

Wolfen Company

Actual direct labor rate $5.00

Standard direct labor hours allowed 11,000

Actual direct labor hours 10,000

Direct labor rate favorable $6,500

Using formula to find the unknown figure

Direct Labor Rate variance =   Actual Hours ( Standard Rate-Actual Rate)

$6,500= 10,000( Standard Rate-5)

$6,500/10,000 =  (Standard Rate-5)

0.65+ 5=Standard Rate

Standard Rate=5+0.65= $ 5.65

We can check by putting it in another formula

Direct Labor Rate variance=  (actual hours * standard rate)-(actual hours* actual rate)

$6,500=(10,000*Standard Rate)-( 10,000 *5.0)

$6,500= (10,000*5.65)-( 10,000 *5.0)

$6,500= (56,500)-( 50,000 )

$6,500=$6,500  (favorable) when standard price is higher than actual price

elena55 [62]

Answer:

Promissory agreement and Deed of trust.

Explanation:

In this scenario, Seller Dayne was made aware by the trustee that the lender was wanting to proceed with foreclosure on his property. The type of financial agreement that Seller Dayne have with this lender is a Promissory agreement and Deed of trust.

A promissory agreement can be defined as an evidence of a debt and as such involves the use of a legal financial tool such as a promissory note as a written promise to declare that a party (borrower) would pay another (lender) at a specific period of time.

On the other hand, a deed of trust can be defined as a legal document used by a party (borrower) to pledge his or her property to another party (lender) as guarantee or collateral for the repayment of a loan. The deed of trust is typically made up of three (3) parties; the lender, borrower and a trustee.

Additionally, a foreclosure on a property refers to a legal procedure whereby the property being pledged by a borrower for a debt is sold to pay off the debt as a result of defaulting in payments or terms with respect to a loan.
