What is nucular decay

1 answer:

6 0

Nuclear decay is the decay of atoms on the atomic scale. “Radioactive decay is the process by which an unstable atomic nucleus loses energy by radiation. A material containing unstable nuclei is considered radioactive. Three of the most common types of decay are alpha decay, beta decay, and gamma decay, all of which involve emitting one or more particles or photons.”

A mixture of methane and air is capable of being ignited only if the mole percent of methane is between 5% and 15%. A mixture co

DaniilM [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

The air 9% mole% methane have an average molecular weight of:

9%×16,04g/mol + 91%×29g/mol = 27,8g/mol

And a flow of 700000g/h÷27,8g/mol = 25180 mol/h

In the reactor where methane solution and air are mixed:

In = Out

Air balance:

91% air×25180 mol/h + 100% air×X = 95%air×(X+25180)

Where X is the flow rate of air in mol/h = 20144 mol air/h

The air in the product gas is

95%×(20144 + 25180) mol/h = 43058 mol air× 21%O₂ = 9042 mol O₂ ×32g/mol = 289 kg O₂

43058 mol air×29g/mol 1249 kg air

Percent of oxygen is: $\frac{289kg}{1249 kg}$ =0,231 kg O₂/ kg air

I hope it helps!
