Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

        Mass flow rate of mixture = 1368 kg/hr

      N_{2} in feed = 40 mole%

This means that H_{2} in feed = (100 - 40)% = 60%

We assume that there are 100 total moles/hr of gas (N_{2} + H_{2}) in feed stream.

Hence, calculate the total mass flow rate as follows.

           40 moles/hr of N_{2}/hr (28 g/mol of N_{2}) + 60 moles/hr of H_{2}/hr (2 g/mol of H_{2})

                  40 \times 28 g/hr + 60 \times 2 g/hr    

                  = 1120 g/hr + 120 g/hr

                  = 1240 g/hr

                  = \frac{1240}{1000}              (as 1 kg = 1000 g)

                  = 1.240 kg/hr

Now, we will calculate mol/hr in the actual feed stream as follows.

                 \frac{100 mol/hr}{1.240 kg/hr} \times 1368 kg/hr

                   = 110322.58 moles/hr

It is given that amount of nitrogen present in the feed stream is 40%. Hence, calculate the flow of N_{2} into the reactor as follows.

                       0.4 \times 110322.58 moles/hr

                      = 44129.03 mol/hr

As 1 mole of nitrogen has 28 g/mol of mass or 0.028 kg.

Therefore, calculate the rate flow of N_{2} into the reactor as follows.

                       0.028 kg \times 44129.03 mol/hr

                         = 1235.612 kg/hr

Thus, we can conclude that the the feed rate of pure nitrogen to the mixer is 1235.612 kg/hr.

Why do you move the .0100 - x to the left side of the equal sign?
dlinn [17]
Because negatives are on the left and positives are on the right , if it was .0100 +x it would move to the right since +x implies that the x is positive.

The boiling points for the homonuclear diatomic molecules in the halogen family are 85 K, 238 K, 332 K, 457 K and 610 K. Which s
patriot [66]

Answer:

Cl_{2} has boiling point of 238 K

Explanation:

Boiling point depends on different intermolecular force such as molecular wight, dipole-dipole attraction force, hydrogen bonding, ionic attraction force.

Homonuclear diatomic molecules are covalent non-polar molecules and thereby free from dipole-dipole attraction force, hydrogen bonding and ionic interaction forces.

Hence, boiling point of homonuclear diatomic molecules depends solely on molecular weight.

We know, higher the molecular weight of a molecule, higher will be its boiling point. This phenomenon can be realized in terms of increasing london dispersion force with increase in molecular weight.

Decreasing order of molecular weight of halogen molecules :

I_{2} > Br_{2} > Cl_{2} > F_{2}

So, decresing order of boiling point of halogen molecules:

I_{2} > Br_{2} > Cl_{2} > F_{2}

Hence Cl_{2} has boiling point of 238 K

An aqueous solution contains 0.100 m naoh at 25.0 °c. the ph of the solution is ________.
ikadub [295]
Recall; pH + pOH = 14
In this case [OH-] =0.100 m
therefore;
pOH = -LOG[OH-]
         = - Log (0.100)
         = 1.00
 Therefore; the pOH is 1.00
And since, pH +pOH = 14
Then pH = 14-pOH
                = 14 -1
                 = 13
Thus the pH is 13.00
