Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
Calculate the mass flow rate in kg/min.
Concept introduction:
It is given that liquid toluene is flowing through a pipe at a rate of 175 m3/h.
Units can be converted as,
The density of toluene is 866 kg / m3.
(b)
Interpretation:
Estimate the mole flow rate in mol/s.
Concept introduction:
It is given that liquid toluene is flowing through a pipe at a rate of 175 m3/h.
Units can be converted as,
