A mixture of 620 lbmol/h of 36 mol% benzene and the remainder toluene is separated continuously into two products. One product i

s 98 mol% benzene and the other is 95 mol% toluene. Calculate the flow rates of both products in kmol/h.

Answer:

P_1=206.7lbmol/h\\\\P_2=413.3lbmol/h

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, for the separation of the benzene-toluene mixture, we can use the following mole balances including the given mole fraction at each stream per species:

B:0.36*620=0.98P_1+0.05P_2\\\\T:0.64*620=0.02P_1+0.95P_2

That can be solved by using a solver for P1 (benzene-rich flow) and P2 (toluene-rich flow):

P_1=206.7lbmol/h\\\\P_2=413.3lbmol/h

Best regards!

Consider the reaction below for which K = 78.2 atm-1. A(g) + B(g) ↔ C(g) Assume that 0.386 mol C(g) is placed in the cylinder re
borishaifa [10]

Answer:

1.65 L

Explanation:

The equation for the reaction is given as:

                        A            +            B           ⇄        C

where;

numbers of moles = 0.386 mol C  (g)

Volume =  7.29 L

Molar concentration of C = \frac{0.386}{7.29}

= 0.053 M

                        A            +            B           ⇄        C

Initial               0                           0                      0.530    

Change          +x                          +x                       - x

Equilibrium      x                           x                      (0.0530 - x)

K = \frac{[C]}{[A][B]}

where

K is given as ; 78.2 atm-1.

So, we have:

78.2=\frac{[0.0530-x]}{[x][x]}

78.2= \frac{(0.0530-x)}{(x^2)}

78.2x^2= 0.0530-x

78.2x^2+x-0.0530=0  

Using quadratic formula;

\frac{-b+/-\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}

where; a = 78.2 ; b = 1 ; c= - 0.0530

= \frac{-b+\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}   or \frac{-b-\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}

= \frac{-(1)+\sqrt{(1)^2-4(78.2)(-0.0530)} }{2(78.2)}  or \frac{-(1)-\sqrt{(1)^2-4(78.2)(-0.0530)} }{2(78.2)}

= 0.0204  or -0.0332

Going by the positive value; we have:

x = 0.0204

[A] = 0.0204

[B] = 0.0204

[C] = 0.0530 - x

     = 0.0530 - 0.0204

     = 0.0326

Total number of moles at equilibrium = 0.0204 +  0.0204 + 0.0326

= 0.0734

Finally, we can calculate the volume of the cylinder at equilibrium using the ideal gas; PV =nRT

if we make V the subject of the formula; we have:

V = \frac{nRT}{P}

where;

P (pressure) = 1 atm

n (number of moles) = 0.0734 mole

R (rate constant) = 0.0821 L-atm/mol-K

T = 273.15 K  (fixed constant temperature )

V (volume) = ???

V=\frac{(0.0734*0.0821*273.15)}{(1.00)}

V = 1.64604

V ≅ 1.65 L
