Explanation:

Styrene is a vinyl monomer in which there is a carbon carbon double bond.

The polymerization of the styrene, which is initiated by using a free radical which reacts with the styrene and the compound thus forms react again and again to form polystyrene (PS).

The equation is shown below as:

$\begin{matrix}& C_6H_5 \\&|\\n H_2C & =CH\end{matrix}$ ⇒ $\begin{matrix}&C_6H_5 \\&|\\ -[-H_2C & -CH-]-_n\end{matrix}$

Air modeled as an ideal gas enters a well-insulated diffuser operating at steady state at 270 K with a velocity of 180 m/s and e

ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

exit temperature 285 K

Explanation:

given data

temperature T1 = 270 K

velocity = 180 m/s

exit velocity = 48.4 m/s

solution

we know here diffuser is insulated so here heat energy is negleted

so we write here energy balance equation that is

0 = m (h1-h2) + m × $(\frac{v1^2}{2}-\frac{v2^2}{2})$ .....................1

so it will be

$h1 + \frac{v1^2}{2} = h2 + \frac{v2^2}{2}$ .....................2

put here value by using ideal gas table

and here for temperature 270K

h1 = 270.11 kJ/kg

$270.11 + \frac{180^2\times \frac{1}{1000}}{2} = h2 + \frac{48.4^2\times \frac{1}{1000}}{2}$

solve it we get

h2 = 285.14 kJ/kg

so by the ideal gas table we get

T2 = 285 K

A closed, rigid tank is filled with a gas modeled as an ideal gas, initially at 27°C and gauge pressure of 300 kPa. The gas is h

Sergio [31]

Answer:

the final temperature is 77.1 °C

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Initial temperature; T₁ = 27°C = ( 27 + 273)K = 300 K

Initial absolute pressure P₁ = 300 kPa = ( 300 + 101.325 )kPa = 401.325 kPa

Final absolute pressure P₂ = 367 kPa = ( 367 + 101.325 )kPa = 468.325 kPa

Now, to calculate the final temperature, we use the ideal gas equation;

P₁V/T₁ = P₂V/T₂

but it is mentioned that the rigid tank is closed,

so the volume is the same both before and after.

Change in volume = 0

hence;

P₁/T₁ = P₂/T₂

we substitute

401.325 kPa / 300 K = 468.325 kPa / T₂

T₂ × 401.325 kPa = 300 K × 468.325 kPa

T₂ = [ 300 K × 468.325 kPa ] / 401.325 kPa

T₂ = 140497.5 K / 401.325

T₂ = 350.08 K

T₂ = ( 350.08 - 273 ) °C

T₂ = 77.1 °C

Therefore, the final temperature is 77.1 °C
