One compartment in a gasoline tank truck has a volume of 11,860 liters. How much gasoline liquid (in liters) is required to result in a stoichiometric concentration of gasoline vapor in this compartment? What is the TNT equivalence of this gasoline vapor, based on a confined explosion? Assume 1 atm and 25°C ambient conditions. Assume that the gasoline is mostly octane (C8H18) and has the following properties: Molecular weight of gasoline vapor: 72 Gasoline liquid specific gravity: 0.72 Lower heating value of gasoline: 44 MJ/kg C8H18 + O2 --> 8CO2 + 9H2O

Distillation

Distillation is a process/technique to separate more volatile components from less volatile components using the principle of relative volatility. In chemical engineering, distillation is one of the most common and important topics that is involved in almost every industry and process.
