Answer:

Oil has the smaller heat capacity. The effectiveness of the heat exchanger is 0.80.

Explanation:

Part 1:

In order to know which fluid has the smaller heat capacity we need to consider the heat equation below:

Q = CΔT, where Q is the heat exchanged, C is the heat capacity and ΔT is the variation in temperature.

As the heat exchange is the same for both fluids, the smaller the temperature variation, the smaller the heat capacity.

Water: ΔT = 120 °F  

Oil: ΔT = 80 °F  

Therefore, oil is the fluid with the smallest heat capacity.

Part 2:

The effectiveness of a counter-flow heat exchanger is given by the equation bellow:

E = \frac{Th1 - Th2}{Th1 - Tc1} \\

Th1: initial temperature of the hot fluid

Th2: final temperature of the hot

Tc1: initial temperature of the cold fluid

E = \frac{220 - 100}{220 - 70} \\E = 0.8

Use bond energies to calculate the enthalpy of reaction for the combustion of ethane. Average bond energies in kJ/mol C-C 347, C
ivanzaharov [21]

The enthalpy of reaction for the combustion of ethane 2CH₃CH₃ + 7O₂ → 4CO₂ + 6H₂O calculated from the average bond energies of the compounds is -2860 kJ/mol.

The reaction is:

2CH₃CH₃ + 7O₂ → 4CO₂ + 6H₂O  (1)  

The enthalpy of reaction (1) is given by:

\Delta H = \Delta H_{r} - \Delta H_{p}   (2)

Where:

r: is for reactants

p: is for products

The bonds of the compounds of reaction (1) are:

  • 2CH₃CH₃: 2 moles of 6 C-H bonds + 2 moles of 1 C-C bond
  • 7O₂: 7 moles of 1 O=O bond  
  • 4CO₂: 4 moles of 2 C=O bonds  
  • 6H₂O: 6 moles of 2 H-O bonds

Hence, the enthalpy of reaction (1) is (eq 2):

\Delta H = \Delta H_{r} - \Delta H_{p}

\Delta H = 2*\Delta H_{CH_{3}CH_{3}} + 7\Delta H_{O_{2}} - (4*\Delta H_{CO_{2}} + 6*\Delta H_{H_{2}O})      

\Delta H = 2*(6*\Delta H_{C-H} + \Delta H_{C-C}) + 7\Delta H_{O=O} - (4*2*\Delta H_{C=O} + 6*2*\Delta H_{H-O})  

\Delta H = [2*(6*413 + 347) + 7*498 - (4*2*799 + 6*2*467)] kJ/mol  

\Delta H = -2860 kJ/mol          

Therefore, the enthalpy of reaction for the combustion of ethane is -2860 kJ/mol.

PLEASE HELP I HATE CHEM
Orlov [11]
This angle is obtained when all four pairs of outer electrons repel each other equally. The bond angles in ammonia and in water are less than 109.5° because of the stronger repulsion by their lone pairs of electrons.
