10.0 kmol of a 40.0 mol% methanol and 60.0 mol% water mixture is processed in a normal batch distillation system with a still po

t that acts as an equilibrium stage and a column with two equilibrium stages (total of three equilibrium contacts). The column has a total condenser, and reflux is a saturated liquid. The column is operated with a varying reflux ratio so that xD is held constant. We desire a final still-pot concentration of 8.0 mol% methanol, and distillate should be 84.0 mol% methanol. Pressure is 1 atm, and CMO is valid.
Required:
a. What initial external reflux ratio, LD, must be used?
b. What final external reflux ratio must be used?
c. How much distillate product is withdrawn, and what is the value of Wfinal?

Answer:

[a]. 0.49.

[2]. 0.536

[c]. 4.15 kmol; 5.84 kmol.

Explanation:

Without mincing words let's dive straight into the solution to the question above.

                                                            [a].

The initial external reflux ratio, LD that must be used = [(0.85 - 0.57)/ 0.85 - 0]/ [ 1 - (0.85 - 0.57)/ 0.85 - 0].

The initial external reflux ratio, LD that must be used = 0.329/ 1- 0.329 = 0.49.

                                                             [b].

The final external reflux ratio that must be used = [ 0.85 - 0.13/ 0.85 - 0]/ [ 1 - 0.85 - 0.13/ 0.85 - 0].

Hence, the final external reflux ratio that must be used =0.847/ 1 - 0.847 = 5.536.

                                                              [c].

The amount of distillate product that is withdrawn:

4 = 0.85 H(t) + 0.8 - 0.08.

H(t) = 4.15 kmol, and the value of Wfinal = 5.84 kmol.

The following median grain size data were obtained during isothermal liquid phase sintering of an 82W-8Mo-8Ni-2Fe alloy. What is
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

The probable grain-coarsening mechanism is : Ideal grain growth mechanism

( d^{2}- d_{0} ^{2} = kt )

Explanation:

The plot attached below shows the time dependence of the growth of grain.

The probable grain-coarsening mechanism is : Ideal grain growth mechanism

the ideal growth follows this principle = d^{2} - d^{2} _{0}  = kt

d = final grain size

d_{0} = initial grain size

k = constant ( temperature dependent )

t = 0

Provide one example of a bad collision, and suggest an engineering solution to avoid the collision.
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

1). Keep your distance. Drive far enough behind the car in front of you so you can stop safely. ...

Drive strategically. Avoid situations that could force you to suddenly use your brakes. ...

Don't get distracted. ...

Don't drive when drowsy or under the influence.

2). By far the deadliest accident type is the head-on collision. Head-on collisions consider both vehicle's speed at the time of the crash, which means even an accident at lower speeds can be catastrophic

Explanation:

first is how to avoid the collision and second is bad collision
