A tank with a height of 100 feet and a constant cross sectional area of 10 ft has a constant input flow of 15 ft /hour of pulp s
kiruha [24]

Answer:

(a) The consistency as a function of time is C=0.15*t.

(b) The tank will become clogged in 24 minutes.

Explanation:

The rate of accumulation of the pulp stock can be defined as

\frac{dC}{dt}=Q_{i}*C_{i}-Q_{o}*C_{o}

In this case, Co is 0, because the exit flow is only water and 0% fiber.

frac{dC}{dt}=Q_{i}*C_{i}-Q_{o}*0=Q_{i}*C_{i}

Rearranging adn integrating

dC = (Q_{i}*C_{i})dt\\\int dC = \int (Q_{i}*C_{i})dt\\C=(Q_{i}*C_{i})*t+constant

At t=0, C=0,

C=(Q_{i}*C_{i})*t+constant\\0=(Q_{i}*C_{i})*0+constant\\0=constant\\\\C=(Q_{i}*C_{i})*t

C=(15*0.01)*t=0.15*t

(b) The time at when the concentration reaches 6% is 0.4 hours or 24 minutes.

C=0.15*t\\0.06=0.15*t\\t=0.06/0.15=0.4

Consider the decomposition of a metal oxide to its elements, where M represents a generic metal.
VladimirAG [237]

<u>Answer:</u>

<u>For 1:</u> The standard Gibbs free energy change of the reaction is 10.60 kJ/mol

<u>For 2:</u> The equilibrium constant for the given reaction at 298 K is 1.386\times 10^{-2}

<u>For 3:</u> The equilibrium pressure of oxygen gas is 0.0577 atm

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • <u>For 1:</u>

The equation used to calculate standard Gibbs free energy change of a reaction is:

\Delta G^o_{rxn}=\sum [n\times \Delta G^o_f_{(product)}]-\sum [n\times \Delta G^o_f_{(reactant)}]

For the given chemical reaction:

M_2O_3(s)\rightarrow 2M(s)+\frac{3}{2}O_2(g)

The equation for the standard Gibbs free energy change of the above reaction is:

\Delta G^o_{rxn}=[(2\times \Delta G^o_f_{(M(s))})+(\frac{3}{2}\times \Delta G^o_f_{(O_2(g))})]-[(1\times \Delta G^o_f_{(M_2O_3(s))})]

We are given:

\Delta G^o_f_{(M_2O_3(s))}=-10.60kJ/mol\\\Delta G^o_f_{(M(s))}=0kJ/mol\\\Delta G^o_f_{(O_2(g))}=0kJ/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\Delta G^o_{rxn}=[(2\times (0))+(\frac{3}{2}\times (0))]-[(1\times (-10.60))]\\\\\Delta G^o_{rxn}=10.60kJ/mol

Hence, the standard Gibbs free energy change of the reaction is 10.60 kJ/mol

  • <u>For 2:</u>

Relation between standard Gibbs free energy and equilibrium constant follows:

\Delta G^o=-RT\ln K_{eq}

where,

\Delta G^o = Standard Gibbs free energy = 10.60 kJ/mol = 10600 J/mol    (Conversion factor: 1 kJ = 1000 J )

R = Gas constant = 8.314 J/K mol

T = temperature = 298 K

K_{eq} = equilibrium constant = ?

Putting values in above equation, we get:

10600J/mol=-(8.314J/Kmol)\times 298K\times \ln (K_{eq})\\\\K_{eq}=1.386\times 10^{-2}

Hence, the equilibrium constant for the given reaction at 298 K is 1.386\times 10^{-2}

  • <u>For 3:</u>

The expression of K_{eq} for above equation follows:

K_{eq}=p_{O_2}^{3/2}

The concentration of pure solids and pure liquids are taken as 1 in the expression. That is why, the concentration of metal and metal oxide is taken as 1 in the expression.

Putting values in above expression, we get:

1.386\times 10^{-2}=p_{O_2}^{3/2}\\\\p_{O_2}=0.0577atm

Hence, the equilibrium pressure of oxygen gas is 0.0577 atm

How does an atom of one element differ from the atom of another element?
Temka [501]

Explanation:

The atoms of one element differs from the atoms of other elements in terms of the number of protons they contain. This is often taken as the atomic number of such an atom.

  • The number of proton is the best indicator of the atom one is dealing with.
  • Based on this number, elements are categorized into distinct columns and rows on the periodic table.
  • The atomic number is the number of protons or positively charge particles in the atom.

II.

It is possible to change the identity of an atom. This is only possible by altering the atomic number of the atom.

Only nuclear reactions have this capability.

When an atom undergoes nuclear reaction that involves change in number of protons, transmutation occurs and a new atom forms.
