Water at 65°F and 20 psia is mixed steadily with saturated water vapor at 20 psia in an insulated chamber. Assume the chamber operates isobarically at 20 psia and the kinetic and potential energies are negligible. If the cooler water is mixed with the hotter vapor with a mixing ratio of 0.4 (parts cold water per 1 part vapor), what is the quality of the exit stream?

Methanol (CH3OH) is produced in the reaction of carbon dioxide and hydrogen via the reaction and process given below: CO2+3H2→CH3OH+H2O The fresh feed to the process contains hydrogen, carbon dioxide, and 0.400 mol% inerts (I). The reactor effluent passes through a condenser that removes essentially all of the methanol and water formed and none of the reactants or inerts. The unreacted reactants and inerts are recycled to the reactor. To avoid buildup of the inerts in the system, a purge stream is withdrawn from the recycle. 100 mol/h of feed to the reactor (not the fresh feed to the process) contains 29.5 mol% CO2, 68.0 mol% H2, and 2.50 mol% inerts. The single-pass conversion of hydrogen is 46.71%. What is the recycle-to-fresh feed ratio?
A 0.2m3 rigid tank initially contains pure oxygen gas (02) at 20°C and 1000 kPa. The tank containing the oxygen is put on a scale to measure its mass. The initial mass is recorded as 110.4 kg. Nitrogen gas is injected isothermally into the tank until the scale reads 121.0 kg. The molar mass of oxygen is 32kg/kmol and the molar mass of nitrogen is 28 kg/kmol. Assuming that the gases behave ideally, answer the following questions: a) What is the mass of the empty tank? b) What is the composition of the final mixture on a mole basis? c) What is the final pressure of the tank? d) The critical temperature and pressure of oxygen are 154.6K and 49.8atm. Based on these properties, comment on the appropriateness of using the ideal gas law in part a)
