Chapter 3, Problem 3.21P
Interpretation Introduction

(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,

1h=60min1min=60sec

The density of toluene is 866 kg / m3.

Interpretation Introduction

(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,

1h=60min1min=60sec

The density of toluene is 866 kg / m3.

The molecular weight of toluene is 92.13 g / mol.

A 40 mol % ethanol 60 mol % water mixture at 60 °C and 1 atm is heated. Using Figure 2-3  answer the following:a. At what temperature does the mixture first begin to boil? What is the composition of the first bubble of vapor?b. At what temperature would it stop boiling (assume no material is removed)? What is the composition of the last droplet of liquid?c. At 82 °C, what fraction is liquid? d. When 90% has been vaporized, what is the temperature, and what are the liquid and vapor compositions?
Is a component with a lower vapor pressure more or less volatile than a component with a higher vapor pressure? Briefly explain.
3.3. Use the following crude assay data with crude API of 36 to estimate cut vol%, critical properties and molecular weight for Light Naphtha (90- 190 °F) and Kerosene (380-520 °F). In addition, calculate the fractions of paraffins, naphthenes and aromatics in the two cuts.
