The mixture flow rate in lbm/h = 117.65 lbm/h

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

15.0 wt% methanol

The flow rate of the methyl acetate :100 lbm/h

Required

the mixture flow rate in lbm/h

Solution

mass of methanol(CH₃OH, Mw= 32 kg/kmol) in mixture :

\tt 15\%\times 200~kg=30~kg\\\\mol=\dfrac{mass}{MW}=\dfrac{30~kg}{32~kg/kmol}=0.9375~kmol

mass of the methyl acetate(C₃H₆O₂,MW=74 kg/kmol,85% wt) in 200 kg :

\tt 85\%\times 200=170~kg\\\\mol=\dfrac{170}{74}=2.297~kmol

Flow rate of the methyl acetate in the mixture is to be 100 lbm/h.

1 kg mixture = 0.85 .methyl acetate

So flow rate for mixture :

\tt \dfrac{1~kg~mixture}{0.85~methyl~acetat}\times 100~lbm/h=117.65~lbm/h

10 m3 of carbon dioxide is originally at a temperature of 50 °C and pressure of 10 kPa. Determine the new density and volume of
Dimas [21]

Answer : The new density and new volume of carbon dioxide gas is 0.2281 g/L and 7.2m^3 respectively.

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the new or final volume of carbon dioxide gas.

Combined gas law is the combination of Boyle's law, Charles's law and Gay-Lussac's law.

The combined gas equation is,

\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2V_2}{T_2}

where,

P_1 = initial pressure of gas = 10 kPa

P_2 = final pressure of gas = 15 kPa

V_1 = initial volume of gas = 10m^3

V_2 = final volume of gas = ?

T_1 = initial temperature of gas = 50^oC=273+50=323K

T_2 = final temperature of gas = 75^oC=273+75=348K

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get:

\frac{10kPa\times 10m^3}{323K}=\frac{15kPa\times V_2}{348K}

V_2=7.2m^3

The new volume of carbon dioxide gas is 7.2m^3

Now we have to calculate the new density of carbon dioxide gas.

PV=nRT\\\\PV=\frac{m}{M}RT\\\\P=\frac{m}{V}\frac{RT}{M}\\\\P=\rho \frac{RT}{M}\\\\\rho=\frac{PM}{RT}

Formula for new density will be:

\rho_2=\frac{P_2M}{RT_2}

where,

P_2 = new pressure of gas = 15 kPa

T_2 = new temperature of gas = 75^oC=273+75=348K

M = molar mass of carbon dioxide gas = 44 g/mole

R = gas constant = 8.314 L.kPa/mol.K

\rho = new density

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get:

\rho_2=\frac{(15kPa)\times (44g/mole)}{(8.314L.kPa/mol.K)\times (348K)}

\rho_2=0.2281g/L

The new density of carbon dioxide gas is 0.2281 g/L

How many grams are in 3.00 moles of carbon
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer: Ok I think The SI base unit for amount of substance is the mole. 1 mole is equal to 1 moles Carbon, or 12.0107 grams. Note that rounding errors may occur, so always check the results. Use this page to learn how to convert between moles Carbon and gram. 12 grams

This means that the atomic mass or atomic weight (12 grams) of carbon is equal to exactly 1 mole of carbon.

hope this helps have a awesome night/day❤️✨
