Question
Chapter 14, Problem 14.43P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
To identify exothermic and endothermic reaction and also determine the class of reaction in which equilibrium conversion increases with increasing temperature T.
Concept introduction:
La-Chatelliers principle:
If a constraint (like a change in temperature, concentration of a reactant or pressure) is performed to a system in equilibrium, then the equilibrium will move in that direction so as to tend to counter the effect of the constraint.

Chemical Engineering Question
A steam boiler or steam generator is a device used to produce steam by
transferring heat to water.
In our case, the combustion chamber is fueled with propane (C3H8) at a flowrate
of 50.0 mol/h in an excess air of 50%.
Assume that both propane and air are fed at 25ºC and the combustion gases
leave the chamber at 200ºC. Pressure can be assumed to be atmospheric.*
Determine:
1. The heat obtained assuming complete combustion.
Compare the results using elements or compounds
2. The steam flowrate that could be generated if the heat is directed to obtain
superheated steam at 2 bar and 160ºC from saturated liquid water at this
pressure solve
In a surface coating operation, a polymer (plastic) dissolved in liquid acetone is sprayed on a solid
surface and a stream of hot air is then blown over the surface, vaporizing the acetone and leaving a
residual polymer film of uniform thickness. Because environmental standards do not allow discharg-
ing acetone into the atmosphere, a proposal to incinerate the stream is to be evaluated.
The proposed process uses two parallel columns containing beds of solid particles. The air–
acetone stream, which contains acetone and oxygen in stoichiometric proportion, enters one of the
beds at 1500 mm Hg absolute at a rate of 1410 standard cubic meters per minute. The particles in
the bed have been preheated and transfer heat to the gas. The mixture ignites when its temperature
reaches 562 C, and combustion takes place rapidly and adiabatically. The combustion products then
pass through and heat the particles in the second bed, cooling down to 350 C in the process. Period-
ically the flow is…
