Wet sugar that contains one-fifth water by mass is conveyed through an evaporator in which 85% of the of the entering water is e

vaporated.
(a) Taking a basis of 100 kg feed, calculate (i) the mass fraction of water in the wet sugar leaving the evaporator, and (ii) the ratio (kg water vaporized/kg wet sugar) leaving the evaporator.

(b) If 1000 tons/day of wet sugar is fed to the evaporator, how much additional water must be removed from the outlet sugar to dry it completely.

Answer:

a)

i) v'=\frac{17}{20}                                   ii) \frac{m_v}{m_f-m_v} =\frac{17}{83}

b) m_r=752963.55\ kg

Explanation:

Given:

fraction of water in wet sugar of m kg by mass, m'_w=\frac{1}{5} \times m

% of water evapourated from the total water after passing through the evapourator, m'_v=85\%

a)

amount of wet sugar fed to the evapourator, m_f=100\ kg

Now the mass of water present in the fed amount of sugar:

m_w=\frac{1}{5} \times m_f

m_w=\frac{100}{5}

m_w=20\ kg

Now the amount of water leaving from this total amount of water after passing through the evapourator:

m_v=m_v' \times m_w

m_v=\frac{85}{100} \times 20

m_v=17\ kg

i)

So, the fraction of of water leaving the evapourator:

v'=\frac{m_v}{m_w}

v'=\frac{17}{20}

ii)

Now the ratio of kg water vaporized/kg wet sugar leaving the evaporator.:

\frac{m_v}{m_f-m_v} =\frac{17}{100-17}

\frac{m_v}{m_f-m_v} =\frac{17}{83}

b)

amount of sugar fed per day, m_f=907185\ kg

<u>Now the mass of water in the given amount of sugar per day:</u>

m_w=\frac{m_f}{5}

m_w=\frac{907185}{5}

m_w=181437\ kg

Mass of water vapourized after passing through the evaporator:

m_v=\frac{85}{100}\times m_w

m_v=\frac{85}{100}\times 181437

m_v=154221.45\ kg

Now the mass of water still remaining in the sugar:

m_r=m_w-m_v

m_r=907185-154221.45

m_r=752963.55\ kg

is the mass of extra water to be evapourated.

Answer:

F

Explanation:

The average velocity is the ratio of total displacement and time.The average speed is the ratio of total distance and time.Therefore the average speed and average velocity are equal if the total displacement is equal to the total distance that is if the body travels along a straight line without changing the direction.

A student heats a liquid on a burner. What happens to the portion of liquid that first begins to warm? Check all that apply.
kherson [118]

Answer:

The answers are options B,D and E

Explanation:

B) The particles in the liquid are slowly overcoming the forces of attraction and spreading out due to the thermal energy they are absorbing. This makes the liquid less dense as it slowly changes into a gas after reaching its boiling point.

D) The particles start absorbing the energy form the surroundings as latent heat of evaporation. They need this energy to overcome the strong forces of attraction between particles to change into the gaseous state

E) The particles have spaced out due to the thermal energy absorbed, making the liquid lighter and it rises upwards.
