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

What would be the products for the reaction Br2 + KI →? (Just identify the correct products for the reaction. You do not need to
Savatey [412]

<u>Answer:</u> The products of the reaction will be I_2\text{ and }KBr

<u>Explanation:</u>

Single displacement reaction is defined as the reaction in which more reactive element displaces a less reactive element from its chemical reaction.

The general chemical equation for the single displacement reaction follows:

A+BC\rightarrow AC+B

The given chemical equation follows:

Br_2+2KI\rightarrow I_2+2KBr

Bromine element is more reactive than iodine element. Thus, can easily replace iodine from its chemical reaction.

Hence, the products of the reaction will be I_2\text{ and }KBr

PSYCHO15rus [73]

[H_{3}O^{+}] = 0.00770 M

The equilibrium equation representing the dissociation of FCH_{2}COOH

FCH_{2}COOH(aq) + H_{2}O (l)    FCH_{2}COO^{-}(aq)+ H_{3}O^{+}(aq)

Given [H_{3}O^{+}] = 0.00770 M

Let the initial concentration of acid be x and change y

So y = [H_{3}O^{+}] =[FCH_{2}COO^{-}] = 0.00770 M

pK_{a} = 2.59K_{a} = 10^{-2.59}   = 0.00257 M

K_{a} = \frac{(0.00770 M)(0.00770 M)}{x - 0.00770}

0.00257 = \frac{0.00005929}{x - 0.00770}

0.00257 x - 0.00001979 = 0.00005929

x = 0.031 M

Therefore, initial concentration of the weak acid is <u>0.031 M</u>
