Chapter 2, Problem 2.43P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

If the data support this prediction should be identified. The value of k should be determined.

Concept introduction:

A chemical reaction is carried out to convert the reactant A to the final product B. A set of data is taken by measuring the concentration of A with time (t). The author has predicted a reaction mechanism for this reaction.

The proposed reaction mechanism predicts that CA and t should be related by the expression,

lnCACAeCA0CAe=kt

where,CA=ConcentrationofA,CAe=ConcentrationofAwhent=infinity

The CA0 and CAe are given hence we can plot concentration of A versus time (t).

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

If the tank volume is 125 L and there is no B in the tank at t=0, the mass of the content in tank after two hours should be calculated.

Concept introduction:

A chemical reaction is carried out to convert the reactant A to the final product B. A set of data is taken by measuring the concentration of A with time (t). The author has predicted a reaction mechanism for this reaction.

A proposed reaction mechanism predicts that CA and t should be related by the expression,

lnCACAeCA0CAe=kt

where,CA=ConcentrationofA,CAe=ConcentrationofAwhent=infinity

Interpretation Introduction

(c)

Interpretation:

The time required for the final concentration of A to reach 1.1.1.05 and 1.01 times CAe , should be estimated and the mass of B produced at each of these conditions for the reactor described in Part (b) should be calculated.

Enumerate the various methods for catalyst preparation and discuss vividly any one of the methods
2. Design a spherical tank, with a wall thickness of 2.5 cm that will ensure that no more than 45 kg of hydrogen will be lost per year. The tank, which will operate at 500 °C, can be made from nickel, aluminum, copper, or iron (BCC). The diffusion coefficient of hydrogen and the cost per pound for each available material is listed in Table 1. Material Do (m2/s) Q (J/mol) Cost ($/kg) Nickel 5.5 x 10-7 37.2 16.09 Aluminium 1.6 x 10-5 43.2 2.66 Copper 1.1 x 10-6 39.3 9.48 Iron (BCC) 1.2 × 10-7 15.1 0.45 Table 1: Diffusion data for hydrogen at 500 °C and the cost of material.
A flash drum at 1.0 atm is separating a feed consisting of methanol and water. If the feed rate is 2000 kg/h and the feed is 45 wt % methanol, what are the values of L (kg/h), V (kg/h), yM, xM (weight fractions), and Tdrum if 35% by weight of the feed is vaporized? VLE data are in Table 2-8.
