Separation units often use membranes, absorbers, and other devices to reduce the mole fraction of selected con- stituents in gas

eous mixtures. Consider a mixture of hydro- carbons that consists of 60 percent (by volume) methane, 30 percent ethane, and 10 percent propane. After passing through a separator, the mole fraction of the propane is reduced to 1 percent. The mixture pressure before and after the separa- tion is 100 kPa. Determine the change in the partial pressures of all the constituents in the mixture

Answer:

ΔP(ch4) = 6kPa

ΔP(c2h6) = 3kPa

ΔP(c3h8) = -9kPa

Explanation:

first, we find the factor that is used in the determination of mole fraction of the other components using the mole fraction of propane, both at the beginning and at the end. This means

β/(0.6+0.3+β) = 0.01

β = 0.009 + 0.01β

β - 0.01β = 0.009

0.99β = 0.009

β = 0.00909

the mole fractions of the methane and ethane at the end are

yCH4 = 0.6/(0.6 + 0.3 +0.00909)

yCH4 = 0.6/0.90909

yCH4 = 0.66

yC2H6 = 0.3/(0.6 + 0.3 + 0.00909

yC2H6 = 0.3/0.90909

yC2H6 = 0.33

Now, the change in partial pressure will be determined from the mole fraction at the beginning and at the end

ΔP(ch4) = (y2 - y1)ch4 * P

ΔP(ch4) = (0.66 - 0.6) * 100

ΔP(ch4) = 6kPa

ΔP(c2h6) = (y2 - y1)c2h6 * P

ΔP(c2h6) = (0.33 - 0.3) * 100

ΔP(c2h6) = 3kPa

ΔP(c3h8) = (y2 - y1)c3h8 * P

ΔP(c3h8) = (0.01 - 0.1) * 100

ΔP(c3h8) = -9kPa

Therefore

ΔP(ch4) = 6kPa

ΔP(c2h6) = 3kPa

ΔP(c3h8) = -9kPa

2.0 moles of a monatomic ideal gas undergoes an isobaric process in which the temperature changes from 260 k to 320 k. what is t
Alik [6]

The change in the internal energy of the gas is 1.5×10∧3 J.

The internal energy of an ideal gas is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas:

ΔE = 3/2 × n × R × ΔT

ΔT = 320 K - 260 K

ΔT = 60 K; change of the temperature

n = 2.0 mol: amount of a monatomic ideal gas

R = 8.1 J/mol×K;the ideal gas constant

ΔE = 3/2 × 2 mol × 8.1 J/mol×K × 60 K

ΔE = 1500 J

ΔE = 1.5×10∧3 J;  the internal energy of the gas

Isobaric process is a type of process in which the pressure of the system stays constant.

What coefficient is needed to balance the reaction
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

OD. 2HCl

Explanation:

A balanced equation needs the equal # of each element on BOTH sides.

By putting a 2 in front of HCl you now have 2 hydrogens on both sides and 2 chlorines. The Ca and CO3 are already balanced.

Deprenyl is an enzyme inhibitor that helps prevent the metabolism of dopamine in the brain. The chemical formula of Deprenyl is
mel-nik [20]

Answer:

0.007 g of deprenyl dose is required fro the patient with body mass of 70 kilograms.

Explanation:

The dose for treating Parkinson’s disease = 100 μg/kg body weight

Mass of patient's body = 70 kg

Amount of dose of deprenyl required = 100 μg/kg × 70 kg = 7,000 μg

1 μg = 0.00001 g

7,000 μg = 7,000 × 0.000001 g = 0.007 g

0.007 g of deprenyl dose is required fro the patient with body mass of 70 kilograms.
