(5) The emissions from a manufacturing process contain gaseous pollutant that cause odors and fumes. The company plans to incinerate the 5,000 acfm exhaust stream. Estimate the volumetric (standard) flowrate of natural gas fuel required to increase the waste gas stream temperature from the initial 80°F to the required temperature of 2500°F. Energy (enthalpy) is transferred from the fuel to the gas. Neglect any possible heat losses in this process. The average net heating value of natural gas is 850 - 1050 Btu/std-ft. Include a diagram of the scenario.

One hundred mole NH3/s and 200 mole O2/s at 25 degrees C are fed into a reactor in which the ammonia is completely consumed. The product gas emerges at 300 degreesC. Calculate the rate at which heat must be transferred to or from thereactor, assuming operation at approximately 1 atm. The standard heat ofreaction for the oxidation of ammonia is given below: NH3 (g) + 5O2 (g) → 4NO(g) + 6H2O(v); ΔHr^0= -904.7KJ(ΔHr^0-904.76KJ/s)

A rigid vessel of volume 0.2m³ contains 10 kg of (liquid + vapor) water at 200°C. What are the pressure and internal energy of the water?
What does q with subscript p mean in relation to Constant pressure calorimetry? it seems to mean that if you're in a constant pressure environment, that the calculation of how he flowed, q, is equal to the change in enthalpy. From my reading it also seems to mean that this is only the case and a constant pressure enviriment. if P constant than in a rxn, q = s m change temp = enthalpy of reaction, another term for "heat flow of reaction".
Consider the combustion of one mole of methane gas:CH4(gas) + 2O2(gas) --> CO2 (gas) + 2H2O(gas).The system is at standard temperature (298 K) and pressure (105 Pa) both before and after the reaction. 1.) First imagine the process of converting a mole of methane into its elemental consituents (graphite and hydrogen gas). Use the data at the back of this book to find ΔH for this process. 2.) Now imagine forming a mole of CO2 and two moles of water vapor from their elemental constituents. Determine ΔH for this process. Question: How much heat is given off during this reaction, assuming that no "other" forms of work are done?
0.1 kg of nitrogen gas at 200 kPa and 50°C is contained in a piston-cylinder arrangement. The piston is moved compressing nitrogen until the pressure becomes 1 MPa and temperature becomes 150°C. The work done during the process is 40 kJ. Calculate the heat transferred from the nitrogen to the surroundings. C y for nitrogen = 0.75 kJ/kg K.
A geochemist in the field takes a 9.0 mL sample of water from a rock pool lined with crystals of a certain mineral compound X. He notes the temperature of the pool, 15. C, and caps the sample carefully. Back in the lab, the geochemist first dilutes the sample with distilled water to 400. mL.. Then he filters and evaporates all the water under vacuum. Crystals of X are left behind. The researcher washes, dries and weighs the crystals. They weigh 0.045 g. Using only the information above, can you calculate the solubility of Xin water at 15.° C7 If you said yes, calculate it.
