Answer:

shell and tube type heat exchanger

Explanation:

for evaporation the shell and tube type heat exchanger is best suited.

in the plate heat exchanger there is gaskets in between every part so this part become weak part in heat echanger and there is possibilities of leakage through this part, there is no such problem in shell and tube type.
the plate type cant be used when there is high temperature and high pressure drop but shell and tube type can be used
in evaporation there the liquids change into vapors due to which there is sudden change in pressure and in which plate type is not used because there is chances of leakage

1. What amount of ammonia (in moles) is produced by the reaction of 4.00 mol H2 with 3.00 mol Nz?

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

<h2>Answer: 6 moles</h2>

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

3 H₂ + N₂ → 2 NH₃

↓ ↓

4 mol 3 mol

Since the moles of N₂ is the smaller of the two reactants, then N₂ is the limiting factor (the reactant that will decide how much ammonia is produced since it has the smaller amount of moles). ∴ we have to use it in calculating the number of moles of ammonia

The mole ratio of N₂ to NH₃ based on the balanced equation is 1 to 2.

∴ the moles of NH₃ = moles of N₂ × 2

= 3 moles × 2

= 6 moles

A nuclear reactor core must stay at or below 95 °C to remain in good working condition. Cool water at a temperature of 10 °C is

aliina [53]

Answer:

$\large \boxed{\text{67 000 g}}$

Explanation:

This is a problem in calorimetry — the measurement of the quantities of heat that flow from one object to another.

It is based on the Law of Conservation of Energy — Energy can be transformed from one type to another, but it cannot be destroyed or created.

If heat flows out of the reactor (negative), the same amount of heat must flow into the water (positive).

Since there is no change in total energy,

heat₁ + heat₂ = 0

The symbol for the quantity of heat transferred is q, so we can rewrite the word equation as

q₁ + q₂ = 0

The formula for the heat absorbed or released by an object is

q = mCΔT, where

m = the mass of the sample

C = the specific heat capacity of the sample, and

ΔT = T_f - T_i = the change in temperature

1. Equation

There are two heat flows in this problem,

heat released by reactor + heat absorbed by water = 0

q₁ + q₂ = 0

q₁ + m₂C₂ΔT₂ = 0

2. Data:

q₁ = -23 746 kJ

m₂ = ?; C₂ = 4.184 J°C⁻¹g⁻¹; T_f = 95 °C; T_i = 10 °C

3. Calculations

(a) Convert kilojoules to joules

$q_{1} = -\text{23 746 kJ} \times \dfrac{\text{1000 J}}{\text{1 kJ}} = -\text{23 746 000 J}$

(b) ΔT

ΔT₂ = T_f - T_i = 95 °C - 10 °C = 85 °C

(c) m₂

$\begin{array}{rcl}q_{1} + q_{2} & = & 0\\\text{-23 746 000 J} + m_{2} \times 4.184 \text{ J$^{\circ}$C$^{-1}$g$^{-1}$} \times 85 \, ^{\circ}\text{C} & = & 0\\\text{-23 746 000 J} + 356m_{2} \text{J$\cdot$g}^{-1} & = & 0\\356m_{2} \text{g}^{-1} & = & 23746000\\m_2&=& \dfrac{23746000}{\text{356 g}^{-1}}\\\\ & = & \textbf{67000 g}\\\end{array}\\$
