Air at 25°C with a dew point of 10 °C enters a humidifier. The air leaving the unit has an absolute humidity of 0.07 kg of water

per kilogram of dry air. The barometer reads 760 mm Hg. Calculate the kg of water the must be evaporated into the air for every 100 kg of dry air entering the unit.

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

         Temperature of dry bulb of air = 25^{o}C

          Dew point = 10^{o}C = (10 + 273) K = 283 K

At the dew point temperature, the first drop of water condenses out of air and then,

        Partial pressure of water vapor (P_{a}) = vapor pressure of water at a given temperature (P^{s}_{a})

Using Antoine's equation we get the following.

            ln (P^{s}_{a}) = 16.26205 - \frac{3799.887}{T(K) - 46.854}

            ln (P^{s}_{a}) = 16.26205 - \frac{3799.887}{283 - 46.854}

                               = 0.17079

                   P^{s}_{a} = 1.18624 kPa

As total pressure (P_{t}) = atmospheric pressure = 760 mm Hg

                                   = 101..325 kPa

The absolute humidity of inlet air = \frac{P^{s}_{a}}{P_{t} - P^{s}_{a}} \times \frac{18 kg H_{2}O}{29 \text{kg dry air}}

                  \frac{1.18624}{101.325 - 1.18624} \times \frac{18 kg H_{2}O}{29 \text{kg dry air}}

                 = 0.00735 kg H_{2}O/ kg dry air

Hence, air leaving the humidifier has a has an absolute humidity (%) of 0.07 kg H_{2}O/ kg dry air.

Therefore, amount of water evaporated for every 1 kg dry air entering the humidifier is as follows.

                 0.07 kg - 0.00735 kg

              = 0.06265 kg H_{2}O for every 1 kg dry air

Hence, calculate the amount of water evaporated for every 100 kg of dry air as follows.

                0.06265 kg \times 100

                  = 6.265 kg

Thus, we can conclude that kg of water the must be evaporated into the air for every 100 kg of dry air entering the unit is 6.265 kg.

How many bonding electrons are in the Lewis structure of PCl₃?
Blababa [14]

Answer:

B.) 6

Explanation:

Attached below is the Lewis structure of PCl₃ . Since phosphorus (P) has 5 valence electrons and chlorine (Cl) has 7 valence electrons, there should be 26 valence electrons (5 + 7(3) = 26) in the Lewis structure.

Bonding electrons are the electrons present in the chemical bonds between two atoms.

There are 2 electrons shared in every single bond. Within PCl₃, there are 3 single bonds. As such, there are 6 bonding electrons in the Lewis structure of PCl₃.

Which would be expected to have the higher boiling point, t-butyl alcohol (2-methyl-2-propanol) or n-butyl alcohol (1-butanol)?
Readme [11.4K]
I would imagine that n-butanol would have the higher boiling point because it has less branching and therefore stronger intermolecular forces between molecules.
