To evaluate the use of renewable resources, an experiment was carried out with rice hulls. After pyrolysis, the product gas analyzed 6.4% CO2, 0.1% O2, 39% CO, 51.8% H2, 0.6% CH4, and 2.1% N2. It entered a combustion chamber at 90 °F and a pressure of 35.0 in. Hg and was burned with 40% excess air (dry) at 70 °F and an atmospheric pressure of 29.4 in. Hg; 10% of the CO remains. a. How many cubic feet of air were supplied per cubic foot of entering gas? b. How many cubic feet of product gas were produced per cubic foot of entering gas if the exit gas was at 29.4 in. Hg and 400 °F?
A sample of propane (C3H8)(C3H8) is placed in a closed vessel together with an amount of O2O2 that is 3.10 times the amount needed to completely oxidize the propane to CO2CO2 and H2OH2O at constant temperature. Calculate the mole fraction of each component in the resulting mixture after oxidation, assuming that the H2OH2O is present as a gas.
A 500 m2 botanical garden which harvest 1000 flowers per day of 15 variations, in a year the average rainfall is 170 cm/yr. With the rainfall 30% percolates into the ground and the rest are harvested in a spherical cistern. 35% of the cistern water is used for watering that percolates into the ground and the rest of water evaporate. Every day they sprinkled water from the cistern and dug wells. Of the dug well water, 75% evaporates and the remainder percolates back into the ground. (Steady State Condition) What is volume of rainfall in the botanical garden? Volume of water in the cistern Volume of water from the well Volume of water that evapotranspiration from the well Total Volume of water that repercolates into the ground
In a commonly used model of the atmosphere, the atmospheric pressure varies with altitude, h, according to the barometric formula:p = p0e–h/Hwhere p0 is the pressure at sea level and H is a constant approximately equal to 8 km. More specifically, H = RT/Mg, where M is the average molar mass of air and T is the temperature at the altitude h. This formula represents the outcome of the competition between the potential energy of the molecules in the gravitational field of the Earth and the stirring effects of thermal motion. Derive this relation by showing that the change in pressure dp for an infinitesimal change in altitude dh where the mass density is ρ is dp = −ρgdh. Remember that ρ depends on the pressure. Evaluate (a) the pressure difference between the top and bottom of a laboratory vessel of height 15 cm, and (b) the external atmospheric pressure at a typical cruising altitude of an aircraft (11 km) when the pressure at ground level is 1.0 atm.

P1A.6 The molar mass of a newly synthesized fluorocarbon was measured in a gas microbalance. is device consists of a glass bulb forming one end of a beam, the whole surrounded by a closed container. The beam is pivoted, and the balance point is attained by raising the pressure of gas in the container, so increasing the buoyancy of the enclosed bulb. In one experiment, the balance point was reached when the fluorocarbon pressure was 327.10Torr; for the same setting of the pivot, a balance was reached when CHF3 (M = 70.014 g mol−1) was introduced at 423.22 Torr. A repeat of the experiment with a di erent setting of the pivot required a pressure of 293.22 Torr of the uorocarbon and 427.22 Torr of the CHF3. What is the molar mass of the fluorocarbon? Suggest a molecular formula.
A commercial 737 jet transporting 143 passengers and 5 crew members from Kansas city (MCI) to Baltimore (BWI) burned 11800 lb. of Jet A fuel. Jet A fuel is kerosene based, consisting primarily of CnH2n+2 hydrocarbons, with n = 6 to 16, so the Carbon:Hydrogen ratio is close to 1:2. During this flight How much CO2 would be released into the atmosphere if those passengers and crew made the trip instead, in pairs, in hybrid cars at 50 miles per gallon. (Assume the density of gasoline to be 0.75kg L-1 and that carbon and hydrogen dominate the composition in a ratio 1:2. The road trip is 1082 miles.
