A chemical engineer must calculate the maximum safe operating temperature of a high-pressure gas reaction vessel. The vessel is

a stainless-steel cylinder that measures 39.0cm wide and 46.8cm high. The maximum safe pressure inside the vessel has been measured to be 5.30MPa. For a certain reaction the vessel may contain up to 7.20kg of sulfur hexafluoride gas. Calculate the maximum safe operating temperature the engineer should recommend for this reaction. Write your answer in degrees Celsius. Round your answer to 3 significant digits.

Answer:

Maximum safe operating temperature = 450 °C

Explanation:

First, the volume of the cylindrical vessel is determined using the formula:

v = πr²h

Radius, r, of stainless steel vessel = width or diameter / 2

r = 39.0 cm / 2 = 19.5 cm

height of vessel = 46.8 cm

volume of cylinder = 22/7 × 19.5² × 46.8 = 55929.343 cm³ = 0.05593 m³

Using the ideal gas equation to calculate the maximum safe temperature

PV = nRT

pressure, P = 5.30 MPa = 5.30 × 10⁶ Pa

R = 8.314 J/mol.K

n = mass of gas/ molar mass of gas

molar mass of SF₆ = 146 g/mol

mass of Sf₆ = 7.20 kg = 7200 g

n = 7200/146 = 49.315 moles

T = PV/nR

T = (5.30 × 10⁶ × 0.05593) / (49.315 × 8.314)

T = 722.98 K

T in °C = 714.98 - 273.15 = 449.83 °C

Therefore, maximum safe operating temperature = 450 °C

Mercury has a mass density of 13.54 g/ml . how many milliliters would 100. grams occupy
frosja888 [35]
<span>7.39 ml For this problem, simply divide the mass of mercury you have by it's density. 100 g / 13.54 g/ml = 7.3855 ml Since we only have 3 significant digits in 100., you need to round the result to 3 significant digits. So 7.3855 ml = 7.39 ml</span>

How do I solve the following word problem: The half-life of Phosphorus - 32 is 14.3 days. It is used to study a plant's use of f
BaLLatris [955]

Half life is the time that it takes for half of the original value of some amount of a radioactive element to decay.

We have the following equation representing the half-life decay:

A=A_o\times2^{(-\frac{t}{t_{half}})_{}_{}}

A is the resulting amount after t time

Ao is the initial amount = 50 mg

t= Elapsed time

t half is the half-life of the substance = 14.3 days

We replace the know values into the equation to have an exponential decay function for a 50mg sample

A=\text{ 50 }\times2^{\frac{-t}{14.3}}

That would be the answer for a)

To know the P-32 remaining after 84 days we have to replace this value in the equation:

\begin{gathered} A=\text{ 50 }\times2^{\frac{-84}{14.3}} \\ A=0.85\text{ mg} \end{gathered}

So, after 84 days the P-32 remaining will be 0.85 mg

Which of the following is true of solids?
Over [174]
<span>Answer: B. Ionic solids have higher melting points than molecular solids.
</span>
This is because the rest are false, as solids are able to melt, and do have melting points. Also, not all solids have the same melting points.
