Answer:

This is a coal combustion process and we will assume

Inlet coal amount = 100kg

It means that there are

15kg of H2O, 2kg of Sulphur and 83kg of Carbon

Now to find the mole fraction of SO2(g) in the exhaust?

Molar mass of S = 32kg/kmol

Initial moles n  of S = 2/32 = 0.0625kmols

Reaction:  S + O₂ = SO₂

That is 1 mole of S reacts with 1 mole of O₂ to give 1 mole of SO₂

Then, it means for 0.0625 kmoles of S, we will have 0.0625 kmole of SO2 coming out of the exhaust

The mole fraction of SO2(g) in the exhaust=0.0625kmols

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The primary structure of a protein refer to the amino acid sequence. The secondary structure of a protein refer to the alpha helices, beta sheets and turns, while the tertiary structure refer to folding of the sheets due to hydrogen bonding or other bonding interaction between them.

VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 8.29 %</h3>

Explanation:

The percentage error of a certain measurement can be found by using the formula

P(\%) =  \frac{error}{actual \:  \: number}  \times 100\% \\

From the question

actual density = 19.30g/L

error = 20.9 - 19.3 = 1.6

We have

p(\%) =  \frac{1.6}{19.3}  \times 100 \\  = 8.290155440...

We have the final answer as

<h3>8.29 %</h3>

Hope this helps you
