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.

Which property can be used to tell gold and pyrite apart?
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

D. Malleability

Explanation:

Gold is made up of the element Au and it is a metal.

Pyrite is iron sulfide and it is a non-metal.

  • They have very similar appearance to such an extent that pyrite is widely called the fool's gold.
  • To distinguish between the two, we simply explore their metallic properties.
  • Gold is malleable. Pyrite is not. It will crumble under pressure.

A block of aluminum with a mass of 140 g is cooled from 98.4°C to 62.2°C with a release of 4817 J of heat. From these data, calc
disa [49]

Answer:

specific heat = 0.951 j/g·°C

Explanation:

Heat flow equation  => q = m·c·ΔT

q = heat flow = 4817 joules

m = mass in grams = 140 grams Aluminum

c = specific heat = ?

ΔT = Temperature Change in °C = 98.4°C - 62.2°C = 36.2°C

q = m·c·ΔT => c = q/m·ΔT = 4817j/(140g)(36.2°C) = 0.951 j/g·°C
