Q1: The following reactions were found to occur while trying to make a desired product B A B -TAI=K₁AC₁ A-X -TA2 = K₂A CA A+X-Y -TA3=K3A CACX Species X and Y are both foul pollutants a) What is the point selectivity of B with respect to the foul pollutants X and Y? Plot the point selectivity as function of CA (CAo=1 M) at 300 K. b) How would you carry out this reaction to maximize the formation of B (type of reactor preferred)? Just give a recommendation based on (a). Additional Information -10,000/T KIA =.5 e min Tin degrees Kelvin -20,000/T K2A = 50 e min T in degrees Kelvin min¹, T in degrees Kelvin K3A = 100 e 5,000/T

Yazid wants to make compost from leaves, sawdust, and food scraps. Leaves have 2% N, C:N 22.5, and MC 77%. Sawdust has 30% C, C:N 300, and MC 20%, whereas food scraps have 2% N, C:N 20, and 50% MC. If the amount of leaves used is 15 kg, determine how much food scraps and sawdust should be added to get a compost mixture with an ideal ratio of C:N 30:1 and moisture content 60%?
