The irreversible elementary gas-phase reaction is carried out isothermally at 305 K in a packed-bed reactor with 100 kg of catal

yst. The entering pressure was 20 atm and the exit pressure is 2 atm. The feed is equal molar in A and B and the flow is in the turbulent flow regime, with FA0 10 mol/min and CA0 0.4 mol/dm3. Currently 80% conversion is achieved. What would be the conversion

Answer:

0.856.

Explanation:

Lets represent the irreversible elementary gas phase equation of reaction as

A + B -----------------------------------> C + D

We have that the percentage of conversion is 80%.

The pressure, p from the ratio of exit pressure and entering pressure is p = 2/20 = 1/10 = 0.1.

Therefore, n = 1 - p^2/ weight of the catalyst = 1 - 0.1^2/ 100 = 9.9 × 10^-3 kg cat^-.

Now, let's make use of the equation below;

J/ 1 - J = kb^2/ u [ w - nw^2/2] ----------(1).

0.8 / 1- 0.8 = k ( 0.4)^2/ 10 [ 100 - (9.9× 10^-3 × 100^2/ 2] .

k = 4.95 dm^6/ kg.cat .mol.min

The turbulent flow= 1/2 × 9.9 × 10^-3 = 4.95 × 10^-3 kg cat^-.

Thus, making use of the equation (1) again, we have that;

{4.95 × 10^-3 × 0.4}/ 10 × [ 100 - (4.95 × 10^-3 × 100^2)] / 2 = 5.964.

Therefore, a/1 - a = 5.964.

5.964( 1 - a) = a.

5.964 - 5.964a = a.

5.964 = a + 5.964a.

5.964 = 6.964a.

a = 5.964/ 6.964 = 0.856.

Which of the following best describes magnetic fields
BigorU [14]

Well the multiple choices for this question would be helpful, but from my own knowledge I would say:

Magnetic fields have north and south magnetic poles.

Magnetic fields have various characteristics which includes; they originate from the north poles and flow towards the south poles, they are exhibited in the form of magnetic field lines. Magnetic fields lines never cross one another,they all have the same strength and seek the path of least resistance between opposite magnetic poles etc.

Why are prefixes not needed in naming ionic compounds?
kari74 [83]

Answer:

when naming ionic compounds — those are only used in naming covalent molecular compounds. Do NOT use prefixes to indicate how many of each element is present; this information is implied in the name of the compound. since iron can form more than one charge. Ionic Compounds Containing a Metal and a Polyatomic Ion.

How many grams of water vapor (H2O) are in a 10.2-liter sample at 0.98 atmospheres and 26°C?
diamong [38]
Hey there! 

<span>Use the equation of Clapeyron:
</span>
T in kelvin :

26 + 273.15 => 299.15 K

R = 0.082

V = 10.2 L

P = 0.98 atm

number of moles :

P *V = n * R * T

0.98 * 10.2 =  n * 0.082 * 299.15

9.996 = n * 24.5303

n = 9.996 / 24.5303

n = 0.4074 moles

Therefore:

Molar mass H2O = 18.01 g/mol

1 mole H2O ------------- 18.01 g
0.4074  moles ----------- m

m = 0.4074 * 18.01 / 1

m = 7.339 g of H2O
