A methanol-water mixture is to be flash distilled at 1 atm. If the feed is 25 mole %methanol, what are the liquid and vapor comp
frozen [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that:

The distillation is carried out at a pressure of 1 atm

The feed harbors 25% mole of methanol (z)

The total moles of feed is usually 100 moles

In the system, we have both methanol and water

Using the total mole balance for the distillation column.

Fz = Lx + Vy

where;

F = amount of feed

z = mole fraction of ethanol (in feed)

L = amount of liquid product out of the column

V = amount of vapor product out of the column

x = mole fraction of methanol out of the liquid

y  = mole fraction of methanol out of the vapor.

SO;

(a)

If all the feed is vaporized, then the vapor will likely have the same composition as the feed.

(b)

If no vaporization of the feed takes place, then the bottoms moving out of the column contains the same composition as the feed.

(c)

If 1/3 of the feed is vaporized; then 2/3 of the feed is at the bottom.

The balance equation would be:

Fz = (\dfrac{2}{3}F) x + (\dfrac{1}{3}F)y \\ \\ z = \dfrac{2}{3}x+\dfrac{1}{3}y

Replacing z = 0.25; we have:

0.25 = \dfrac{2}{3}x+\dfrac{1}{3}y

0.75 = 2x + y

(d)

If 2/3 of the feed is vaporized;

Then:

Fz = (\dfrac{1}{3}F) x + (\dfrac{2}{3}F)y \\ \\ z = \dfrac{1}{3}x+\dfrac{2}{3}y

replacing z = 0.25

0.25 = \dfrac{1}{3}x+\dfrac{2}{3}y

0.75 = x + 2y

Explain with examples following characteristics of chemical reactions: a. Change of colour b. Evolution of gas c. Change of smel
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

Explanation:

a. change of colour:

A chemical reaction rearranges the constituent atoms of the reactants to create different substances as products. The products have different molecular structures than the reactants. Different atoms and molecules radiate different colours of light. Hence, there usually is a change in colour during a chemical reaction.

Eg: copper reactions with the elements

b. Evolution of gas:

A gas evolution reaction is a chemical reaction in which one of the end products is a gas such as oxygen or carbon dioxide.

Eg: ammonium hydroxide breaks down to water and ammonia gas.

c. Change of smell :

Production of an Odor Some chemical changes produce new smells.  ... The formation of gas bubbles is another indicator that a chemical change may have occured.

Eg: The chemical change that occurs when an egg is rotting produces the smell of sulfur.

d. Change of state:

A chemical reaction is a process in which one or more substances, also called reactants, are converted to one or more different substances, known as products.

Eg: candle wax (solid) melts initially to produce molten wax (liquid)
