Estimate the liquid density (g/cm3) of propane at 298 K and 10 bar. Compare the price per kilogram of propane to the price of re

gular gasoline assuming the cost of 5 gal of propane for typical gas grills is roughly $30. The density of regular gasoline can be estimated by treating it as pure isooctane (2,2,4 trimethylpentane ! = 0.692 g/cm3 ) at 298 K and 1 bar.

Answer:

Density of propane = 17.8 g/L

Propane is more priced than gasoline

Explanation:

Given:

Temperature, T = 298 K

Pressure, P = 10 bar = 0.987 × 10 = 9.87 atm

now,

Molar mass of propane, M = 44.1 g/mol

From ideal gas law

⇒ PV = nRT

here,

n is the number of moles

R is the ideal gas constant = 0.0821 L.atm/mol.K

also,

Density, D = \frac{\textup{Mass}}{\textup{Volume(V)}}

or

V = \frac{\textup{Mass}}{\textup{D}}

and,

nM = mass

thus,

V = \frac{\textup{nM}}{\textup{D}}

substituting in the ideal gas relation

we have

P = \frac{\textup{DRT}}{\textup{M}}

or

D = \frac{\textup{PM}}{\textup{RT}}

or

D = \frac{9.87\times44.1}{0.0821\times298}

or

D = 17.8 g/L

Now,

1 gallon = 3.78 Liter

Therefore,

5 gallon = 5 × 3.78 Liter = 18.9 Liter

Thus,

mass of 5 gallon propane = Volume × Density

= 18.9 Liter × 17.8 g/L

= 336.42 g

or

= 0.336 kg

also it is given that Price of 5 gallon propane i.e 0.336 kg = $30

Therefore,

Price per kg = \frac{30}{0.336}

= $89.28

and,

Mass of 5 gallons i.e 18.9 Liter gasoline = Density × Volume

= 0.692 g/cm³ × 18.9 Liter

also,

1 L = 1000 cm³

thus,

= 0.692 g/cm³ × 18.9 × 1000 cm³

= 13078.8 g

or

= 13.078 kg

Therefore,

Price per kg of gasoline = \frac{\$30}{13.078}

= $2.29

hence, propane is more priced than gasoline

Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

No

Explanation:

Beck was the general manager of company. By signing the company's document, actually company is liable to pay that amount not individual. The claim that Haines make is incorrect as any liability is supposed to be beared by company.

You want to invest in a hot dog stand near the ballpark. The hot dog stand will have $60,000 in fixed cost. Each hot dog costs y
aleksley [76]

Answer:

Break-even quantity is 20,000 hot dog

and,

to make profit of $30,000 , the number of hot dog sold should be 30,000

Explanation:

Given:

Fixed cost = $60,000

Cost of each hot dog = $3.5

Selling cost = $6.5

Now,

let the quantity at breakeven be 'x'

At breakeven point,

Total cost = Total revenue

Thus,

$60,000 + $3.5x  = $6.5x

or

$6.5x - $3.5x = $60,000

or

$3x = $60,000

or

x = 20,000

To earn profit of $30,000

Now,

Profit = Revenue - Cost

Let the quantity for $30,000 profit be 'y'

Thus,

$30,000 = $6.5y - ($60,000 + $3.5y)

or

$30,000 = $6.5y - $3.5y - $60,000

or

$90,000 = $3y

or

y = 30,000

Hence,

Break-even quantity is 20,000 hot dog

and,

to make profit of $30,000 , the number of hot dog sold should be 30,000
