When you step out of a shower, the temperature in the bathroom is 71°F and the relative humidity is 96%. You notice that a barely perceptible amount of water has condensed on the inside of the bathroom window.
(a) Assuming that the air immediately adjacent to the glass has the same composition as the rest of the room air, estimate the temperature of the inside glass surface.
(b) What could you say about the inside surface temperature if the window were completely drenched with condensate?

- #2 The isothermal gas-phase degradation reaction is given below. Pure ethane enters a flow reactor at 6 atm and 1100 K, with the pressure drop can be negligible. This reaction follows an elementary rate law. C2H6 → C2H4 + H2 a) Express the concentration of each species solely as a function of conversion. b) Write the reaction rate (the unit is mol/L-s) solely as a function of conversion (*rate constant k will be used in this mathematical expression). What is the unit of k. c) If this reaction is carried out in a constant volume batch reactor now, how to express the concentration of each species solely as a function of conversion?arrow_forward#1 For the following liquid phase reaction, ethylene oxide reacts with water to form ethylene glycol in a CSTR. The entering concentrations of ethylene oxide and water are 16.13 mol/L and 55.5 mol/L, respectively. The reaction rate constant k = 0.1 L/mol·s at 300 K. This reaction follows an elementary rate law. Taking ethylene oxide as the limiting species (i.e., basis of the calculation). ན CH₂-OH | H2SO4 CH2-CH₂+H₂O CH₂-OH a) Express the concentration of each species solely as a function of conversion. b) Write the reaction rate solely as a function of conversion at 300 K.arrow_forward#4 The gas phase reaction, as given below is carried out isothermally in a PFR with no pressure drop. The feed is equal molar in A and B, and the entering concentration of A is 0.1 mol/L. 2A + B → C a) What is the entering concentration of B? b) What are the concentrations of A, B, and C at 25% conversion of A? c) If at a particular conversion, the rate of formation of C is 2 mol/L-min, what is the rate of consumption of A at the same conversion?arrow_forward
- #3 Orthonitroanaline (an important intermediate in dyes - called fast orange) is formed from the reaction of orthonitroanaline (ONCB) and aqueous ammonia. This liquid phase reaction is first order in both ONCB and ammonia with k = 0.0017 m³/kmol·min at 188 °C. The initial entering concentration of ONCB and ammonia are 1.8 kmol/m³ and 6.6 kmol/m³, respectively. ONCB is used as the basis of calculation.

- A buffer solution is made by mixing 0.1 M acetic acid (HA) and 0.05 M sodium acetate (A⁻). The pKa of acetic acid is 4.76. Due to an experimental error, the actual pH was not recorded, and we need to solve for the concentration of the conjugate base (A⁻) given that the desired pH should be 4.90. Use the Bisection Method to find the concentration of A.arrow_forward1.

Please describe this diagram in terms of borrowing and payback. b. How much does John need to pay to totally payoff the loan at the end of year 8 if the interest rate is 8%? c. If John pays the sam amount of money at year 8, how much can John borrow at year 0 without paying back in between with the same interest rate?arrow_forwardA buffer solution is made by mixing 0.1 M acetic acid (HA) and 0.05 M sodium acetate (A⁻).
