A high molecular weight hydrocarbon gas A is fed continuously into a heated mixed flow reactor (0.1liter) where it is thermally

cracked into lower molecular weight materials collectively called R as the reaction stoichiometry A 5R. Find the space velocity if molar feed rate was 300millimol/ hr and the feed concentration was 100millimol / lit.

Answer:

Space velocity = 30 hr⁻¹

Explanation:

Space velocity for reactors express how much reactor volume of feed or reactants can be treated per unit time. For example, a space velocity of 3 hr⁻¹ means the reactor can process 3 times its volume per hour.

It is given mathematically as

Space velocity = (volumetric flow rate of the reactants)/(the reactor volume)

Volumetric flowrate of the reeactants

= (molar flow rate)/(concentration)

Molar flowrate of the reactants = 300 millimol/hr

Concentration of the reactants = 100 millimol/liter

Volumetric flowrate of the reactants = (300/100) = 3 liters/hr

Reactor volume = 0.1 liter

Space velocity = (3/0.1) = 30 /hr = 30 hr⁻¹

Hope this Helps!!!

Why does an object under forced convection reach a steady-state faster than an object subjected to free-convection?
bonufazy [111]

Answer:

Free convection:

   When heat transfer occurs due to density difference between fluid then this type of heat transfer is know as free convection.The velocity of fluid is zero or we can say that fluid is not moving.

Force convection:

   When heat transfer occurs due to some external force then this type of heat transfer is know as force convection.The velocity of fluid is not zero or we can say that fluid is moving in force convection.

Heat transfer coefficient of force convection is high as compare to the natural convection.That is why heat force convection reach a steady-state faster than an object subjected to free-convection.

We know that convective heat transfer given as

 q = h  A ΔT

h=Heat transfer coefficient

A= Surface area

ΔT = Temperature difference

Is it possible to have a heat engine with efficiency of 100%?
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

No

Explanation:

Heat engines are used for converting the heat into mechanical energy which is used for doing mechanical work.

The efficiency of heat engine is the fraction of mechanical energy to the thermal energy. The efficiency can not be 100% as some of the energy always loss due to friction and motion of the body parts of the heat engine.

Niobium has a BCC crystal structure, an atomic radius of 0.143 nm and an atomic weight of 92.91 g/mol. Calculate the theoretical
Olin [163]

Answer:

The theoretical density for Niobium is 1.87 g/cm^3.

Explanation:

Formula used :  

\rho=\frac{Z\times M}{N_{A}\times a^{3}}

where,

\rho = density  of the unit cell

Z = number of atom in unit cell

M = atomic mass

(N_{A}) = Avogadro's number  

a = edge length of unit cell

We have :

Z = 2 (BCC)

M = 92.91 g/mol ( Niobium)

Atomic radius for niobium = r = 0.143 nm

Edge length of the unit cell = a

r = 0.866 a (BCC unit cell)

a=\frac{0.143 nm}{0.866}=0.165 nm=0.165 \times 10^{-7} cm

1 nm = 10^{-7} cm

On substituting all the given values , we will get the value of 'a'.

\rho=\frac{2\times 92.91}{6.022\times 10^{23} mol^{-1}\times (0.165 \times 10^{-7} cm)^{3}}

\rho =1.87 g/cm^3

The theoretical density for Niobium is 1.87 g/cm^3.
