I think it's D, because theoretical yield is like, the yield you'd get if 100% of the reactants formed to make product. Well that's how I think of it, but it has something to do with limiting reagents and stuff. Sorry this isn't a really detailed explanation.

A slurry of flakes soybeans weighing a total of 100 kg contains 75 kg of inert solids and 25 kg of solution with 10 wt% oil and

lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

the amounts and compositions of the overflow V1 and underflow L1 leaving the stage are 75kg and 125kg respectively.

Explanation:

Let state the given parameters;

Let A= solvent (hexane)

B= solid(inert soiid)

C= solvent(oil)

$F_{solution}$ = mass of solvent + mass of oil (i.e A+C)

<u>Feed Phase:</u>

Total feed (i.e slurry of flakes soybeans)= 100kg

B= mass of solid =75 kg

F= mass of solvent + mass of oil (i.e A+C)

= 25kg

Mass ratio of oil to solution $Y_{F}$ = $\frac{Mass C}{Mass (A+C)}$

mass of oil (C) =25 × 0.1 wt = 2.5kg

mass of hexane in feed = 25 × 0.9 =22.5kg + 2.5 =25kg

therefore $Y_{F}$ = $\frac{2.5}{25}$

= 0.1

mass ratio of solid to solution $Y_{A}$ = $\frac{Mass A}{Mass (A+C)}=[tex]\frac{75}{25}$

<u>Solvent Phase:</u>

C= Mass of oil= 0(kg)

A= Mass of hexane = 100kg

mass of solutions = A+C = 0+100kg

solvent= 100kg

<u>Underflow:</u>

underflow = L₁ = (unknown) ???

L₁ = E₁ + B

the value of N for the outlet and underflow is 1.5 kg

i.e N₁ = $\frac{mass B}{mass(A+C)}$

solution in underflow E₁ = Mass (A+C)

<u>Overflow:</u>

Overflow = V₁ = (unknown) ???

solution in overflow V₁ = Mass (A+C)

This is because, B = 0 in overflow

Solid Balance: (since the solid is inert, then is said to be same in feed & underflow).

solid in feed = solid in underflow = 75

75= E₁ × N₁

75 = E₁ × 1.5

E₁ = 50kg

Underflow L₁ = E₁ × B

= 50 + 75

=125kg

The Overall Balance: Feed + Solvent = underflow + overflow

100 + 100 = 125 + V₁

V₁ = 75kg

For the reaction shown, identify the element oxidized, the element reduced, the oxidizing agent, and the reducing agent. KNO3 →

Vinvika [58]

Answer : The oxidizing element is N and reducing element is O.

$KNO_{3}$ is act as an oxidizing agent as well as reducing agent.

Explanation :

An Oxidizing agent is the agent which has ability to oxidize other or a higher in oxidation number.

Reducing agent is the agent which has ability to reduce other or lower in oxidation number.

The given reaction is :

$KNO_{3} \rightarrow KNO_{2} +O_{2}$

$KNO_{3}$ act as an oxidizing agent.

The oxidation number of N in $KNO_{3}$ is calculated as:

(+1)+(x)+3(-2) = 0

x = +5

And the oxidation number of N in $KNO_{2}$ is calculated as:

(+1)+(x)+2(-2) = 0

x = +3

From the oxidation number method, we conclude that the oxidation number reduced this means $KNO_{3}$ itself get reduced to $KNO_{2}$ and it can act as an oxidizing agent.

$KNO_{3}$ act as a reducing agent.

$KNO_{3} \rightarrow KNO_{2} +O_{2}$

The oxidation number of O in $KNO_{3}$ is calculated as:

(+1)+(+5)+3(x) = 0

x = -2

The oxidation number of O in $O_{2}$ is Zero (o).

Now, we conclude that the oxidation number increases this means $KNO_{3}$ itself get oxidized to $O_{2}$ and it can act as reducing agent.

Choose all true statements about the water molecule: Choose all true statements about the water molecule: Bonding between the ox

amm1812

Answer: Water is a permanent electric dipole, having permanent charge separation.

Explanation:

Hydrogen bonding is an intermolecular force having partial ionic-covalent character.

In $H_2O$ , O is a highly electronegative atom attached to a H atom through a covalent bond. The oxygen atoms being more electronegative gets partial negative charge and H atom gets partial positive charge. Thus water is permanent electric dipole.

Hydrogen bonding takes place between a hydrogen atom (attached with an electronegative atom O) and an electronegative atom (O).
