Acetylene had many uses at the time of the First World War, because it burned with a hot and luminous flame mainly. The oxyacetylene apple and the period of the oxyacetylene car company and bicycles made this good represent well. In an attempt to find a route to acetylene other than through calcium carbide, a Prest-O-Lite sponsored research by George O. Curme of the Mellon Institute in Pittsburgh. Ethylene research was directed towards converting gases for refining petroleum methods, led to more polyethylene material for acetylene production. Viewed from today's perspective, the Curme route to petroleum-based ethylene ranks as an important discovery. However, this was not the case at the time, because ethylene had almost no use before 1920. Curme's second major contribution was the research he carried out to see what useful products he could make with ethylene. The first was ethylene glycol, which became Prestone antifreeze. Others follow and now ethylene is evidently the most…

6. As shown in Figure, a gas within a piston-cylinder assembly undergoes a thermodynamic cycle consisting of three processes in series: Process 1-2: Compression with U 2 =U 1 . Process 2-3: Constant-volume cooling to p 3 =140 kPa,; V 3 =0.028 m^ 2 . Process 3 - 1 : Constant-pressure expansion with W 31 =10.5 kJ. For the cycle, W eycle =28.3 kJ . There are no changes in kinetic or potential energy. Determine (a) the volume at state 1, in m ^ 3 . (b) the work and heat transfer for process 1-2, each in kJ. (e) Can this be a power cycle? A refrigeration cycle? Explain.
The production of cement results in significant GHG emissions. The emissions are caused by the decomposition of calcium carbonate (limestone) to calcium oxide (lime) and carbon dioxide. This process known as calcination, is carried out in kilns. Therefore, additional GHGs are emitted as a result of heating the kilns. A large cement manufacturer uses a mix of coal, natural gas, and biomass in its boiler. This mix produces the following amounts of GHGs per Million BTUs of energy: • 250 lbs CO2/MMBtu • 5 lbs CH4/MMBtu • 0.36 lbs N2O/MMBtu Process carbon emissions from the calcination process produce 925 lbs of carbon dioxide per metric ton of cement. In addition, the plant uses 1.7 Million BTUs of energy per metric ton of cement. If the plant produces 180,000 metric tons of cement annually, how many metric tons of CO2e does it emit?
A fuel has the following volumetric analysis: CH4 = 68% C2H6 = 32% Assume complete combustion with 15% excess aur at 101.325 kPa and 27 degrees dry bulb temperature. What is the total moles in the products of combustion?
Chlorodifluoromethane (CHF2Cl) was widely used in the compression/cooling circuits of refrigeration or air-conditioning systems. Since the discovery that such compounds (HCFCs and CFC's) released into the atmosphere were a major cause of depletion of stratospheric ozone, newer refrigeration systems make use of certain hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), which are degraded in the lower atmosphere, instead. Often, mixtures of such compounds are used. Suppose a sample of refrigerant gas consisting of a simple mixture of the gases pentafluoroethane (C2HF5) and difluorormethane (CH2F2) has a density of 3.06 g/L at 14 °C and 0.974 atm. Calculate the average molecular mass for this sample
