A mixture of methane and air is capable of being ignited only if the mole percent of methane is between 5% and 15%. A mixture co

ntaining 9.0 mole% methane in air flowing at a rate of 700 kg/h is to be diluted with pure air to reduce the methane concentration to the lower flammability limit. Calculate the required flow rate of air in mol/h and the percent by mass of oxygen in the product gas. (Note: Air may be taken to consist of 21 mole% O and 79% N2 and to have an average molecular weight of 29.0.) answer:
(a)n = 20,200 mol air/h; 0.225 kg O2/kg

Answer:

Explanation:

The air 9% mole% methane have an average molecular weight of:

9%×16,04g/mol + 91%×29g/mol = 27,8g/mol

And a flow of 700000g/h÷27,8g/mol = 25180 mol/h

In the reactor where methane solution and air are mixed:

In = Out

Air balance:

91% air×25180 mol/h + 100% air×X = 95%air×(X+25180)

Where X is the flow rate of air in mol/h = <em>20144 mol air/h</em>

<em></em>

The air in the product gas is

95%×(20144 + 25180) mol/h = 43058 mol air× 21%O₂ = 9042 mol O₂ ×32g/mol = <em>289 kg O₂</em>

43058 mol air×29g/mol <em>1249 kg air</em>

Percent of oxygen is: \frac{289kg}{1249 kg} =<em>0,231 kg O₂/ kg air</em>

<em></em>

I hope it helps!

Assuming that all infrared vibrations are active, what is
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

The number of lines possible for SO2 is 3

Explanation:

The following Procedure should be followed when calculating the number of vibrational modes:-

  1. Identify if the given molecule is either linear or non-linear
  2. Calculate the number of atoms present in your molecule
  3. Place the value of n in the formula and solve.

SO2 is a non-linear molecule because it contains a lone pair which causes the molecule to bent in shape hence, The mathematical formula for calculating the number of non-linear molecule in a infrared region is (3n - 6) here n is the number of atoms in molecule.

hence for Sulphur Dioxide (SO2), n will be 3

<u> Therefore, The number of lines possible for SO2 is  (3*3) - 6 = 3</u>

A chemist adds 0.60L of a 0.20/molL sodium thiosulfate Na2S2O3 solution to a reaction flask. Calculate the millimoles of sodium
Serggg [28]

Answer:

1.2×10² mmole of Na₂S₂O₃

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Volume = 0.6 L

Molarity = 0.2 mol/L

Mole of Na₂S₂O₃ =?

Molarity is simply defined as the mole of solute per unit litre of water. Mathematically, it is expressed as:

Molarity = mole /Volume

With the above formula, we can obtain the number of mole of Na₂S₂O₃ in the solution as illustrated below:

Volume = 0.6 L

Molarity = 0.2 mol/L

Mole of Na₂S₂O₃ =?

Molarity = mole /Volume

0.2 = Mole of Na₂S₂O₃ / 0.6

Cross multiply

Mole of Na₂S₂O₃ = 0.2 × 0.6

Mole of Na₂S₂O₃ = 0.12 mole

Finally, we shall convert 0.12 mole to millimole (mmol). This can be obtained as follow:

1 mole = 1000 mmol

Therefore,

0.12 mole = 0.12 mole × 1000 mmol / 1 mole

0.12 mole = 120 = 1.2×10² mmole

Thus, the chemist added 1.2×10² mmole of Na₂S₂O₃
