Evaporation of Cane Sugar Solutions. An evaporator is used to concentrate cane sugar solutions. A feed of 10 000 kg/d of a solut

ion containing 38 wt % sugar is evaporated, producing a 74 wt % solution. Calculate the weight of solution produced and amount of water removed.

Answer:

Weight of solution produced = 5135 kg

Amount of water removed = 4865 kg

Explanation:

For the balance of mass, the incoming mass of sugar must be equal to the outgoing mass. So, the incoming mass (mi) is 38% of 10000 kg

mi = 0.38x10000 = 3800 kg

The outgoing mass (mo) must be 3800 kg, and it is 74% of the total mass (mt)

mo = 0.74xmt

0.74xmt = 3800

mt = 3800/0.74

mt = 5135 kg

This is the mass of solution produced.

The amount of water removed (wr) is the amount of water incoming (wi) less the amount of water outgoing (wo). Both will be the total mass less the mass of sugar :

wi = 10000 - 3800 = 6200 kg

wo = 5135 - 3800 = 1335 kg

wr = wi - wo

wr = 6200 - 1335

wr = 4865 kg

What is the equilibrium membrane potential due to na ions if the extracellular concentration of na ions is 142 mm and the intrac
Ganezh [65]

The equilibrium membrane potential is 41.9 mV.

To calculate the membrane potential, we use the <em>Nernst Equation</em>:

<em>V</em>_Na = (<em>RT</em>)/(<em>zF</em>) ln{[Na]_o/[Na]_ i}

where

• <em>V</em>_Na = the equilibrium membrane potential due to the sodium ions

• <em>R</em> = the universal gas constant [8.314 J·K^(-1)mol^(-1)]

• <em>T</em> = the Kelvin temperature

• <em>z</em> = the charge on the ion (+1)

• <em>F </em>= the Faraday constant [96 485  C·mol^(-1) = 96 485 J·V^(-1)mol^(-1)]

• [Na]_o = the concentration of Na^(+) outside the cell

• [Na]_i = the concentration of Na^(+) inside the cell

∴ <em>V</em>_Na =

[8.314 J·K^(-1)mol^(-1) × 293.15 K]/[1 × 96 485 J·V^(-1)mol^(-1)] ln(142 mM/27 mM) = 0.025 26 V × ln5.26 = 1.66× 25.26 mV = 41.9 mV

Consider the following reaction where Kc = 154 at 298 K.2NO(g) + Br2(g) 2NOBr(g)A reaction mixture was found to contain 4.64×10-
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

The reaction is not at equilibrium and reaction must run in forward direction.

Explanation:

At the given interval, concentration of NO = \frac{4.64\times 10^{-2}}{1}M=4.64\times 10^{-2}M

Concentration of Br_{2} = \frac{4.56\times 10^{-2}}{1}M=4.56\times 10^{-2}M

Concentration of NOBr = \frac{0.102}{1}M=0.102M

Reaction quotient,Q_{c} , for this reaction = \frac{[NOBr]^{2}}{[NO]^{2}[Br_{2}]}

species inside third bracket represents concentrations at the given interval.

So, Q_{c}=\frac{(0.102)^{2}}{(4.64\times 10^{-2})^{2}\times (4.56\times 10^{-2})}=106

So, the reaction is not at equilibrium.

As Q_{c}< K_{c} therefore reaction must run in forward direction to increase Q_{c} and make it equal to K_{c}.
