Chapter 2, Problem 2.17P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The mass in slugs and the weight in poundals of a 135 lbm woman (i) on earth and (ii) on the moon should be determined.

Concept introduction:

According to Newton’s second law

F = ma

Where,

F = force m = mass and a = acceleration

1lbm×1ft/s2=132.174lbf

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The rate at which the object accelerates should be determined.

Concept introduction:

According to Newton’s second law

F=ma

1poundal=1lbm×1ft/s2=132.174lbf

1slug=32.174lbm

chemical engineering The answer for the specific molar volume of nitrogen gas is 12.089x10^(-5) m^3/mol.  How was this answer determined?  You need to use the ideal gas law to determine the specific molar volume.  Do not determine the third specific enthalpy.
Using Raoult's law for water and Henry's law for nitrogen, calculate the pressure and gas-phase composition (mole fractions) in a system containing a liquid that is 0.500 mole% N2 and 99.50 mole% water in equilibrium with nitrogen gas and water vapor at 70.0 °C. The Henry's law constant for nitrogen in water is recommended by NIST to be well represented by KH = 0.000625 exp[1300 (1/T - 1/298.15)] mol N2/(kg H2O bar), where T is measured in Kelvin. Physical Property Tables Unit Conversion Check the unit conversions and examine the definition of H. Estimate the Henry's law constant H [atm/(mole fraction N2)] for nitrogen in water at T = 70.0 °C. i ! x 104 atm/(mole fraction N2)
can you help me answer this, you can find what the data need in perry's chemical engineering handbook 9th edition
