Chapter 6, Problem 6.107P

Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

To Calculate $p_{CC{l}_4}$ at the moment the tank is sealed.

Concept introduction:

A mixture of air and carbon tetrachloride is filled in a tank of volume, ${\text{V}}_{\text{tank}}\text{(50}\text{.0}\text{L)}$ at pressure, $\text{P(1}\text{atm)}$, temperature, T(34°C) and relative saturation, RS (30%). Small amount of activated carbon is added in order to separate the carbon tetrachloride from air by adsorption.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

To Calculate the total pressure in the tank and the partial pressure of carbon tetrachloride.

Concept introduction:

A mixture of air and carbon tetrachloride is filled in a tank of volume, ${\text{V}}_{\text{tank}}\text{(50}\text{.0}\text{L)}$ at pressure, $\text{P(1}\text{atm)}$, temperature, T(34°C) and relative saturation, RS(30%). Small amount of activated carbon is added in order to separate the carbon tetrachloride from air by adsorption.

Interpretation Introduction

(c)

Interpretation:

To determine the activated carbon must be added to the tank.
