Chapter 4, Problem 4.4P
A stream consisting of 44.6 mole% benzene and 55.4% toluene is fed at a constant rate to a process unit that produces two product streams, one a vapor and the other a liquid. The vapor flow rate is initially zero and asymptotically approaches half of the molar flow rate of the feed stream. Throughout this entire period, no material accumulates in the unit. When the vapor flow rate has become constant, the liquid is analyzed and found to be 28.0 mole% benzene.
- Sketch a plot of liquid and vapor flow rates versus time from startup to when the flow rates become constant.

A steady-state process to recover crystalline potassium chromate (K,CrOz) from an aqueous solution of this salt
is required. Four thousand kilograms per hour of a solution that is one-third K,CrO, by mass is joined by a recycle
stream containing 36.4% K2CrO7, and the combined stream is fed into an evaporator. The concentrated stream
leaving the evaporator contains 49.4% K,CrO; this stream is fed into a crystallizer in which it is cooled (causing
crystals of K,CrO, to come out of solution) and then filtered. The filter cake consists of K,CrO, crystals and a
solution that contains 36.4% K,CrO, by mass; the crystals account for 95% of the total mass of the filter cake. The
solution that passes through the filter, also 36.4% K,CrO,, is the recycle stream.
1- Draw the flowchart of the system and put all known information.
2- Calculate the rate of evaporation, the rate of production of crystalline K,CrO7, the feed rates that the
evaporator and the crystallizer must be designed to handle, and…
Two process streams are mixed to form a single stream. Only the flow
in the mixed stream is known. A soluble salt is added to one of the
original streams at a steady rate. Samples taken of this stream show it
to be 4.76 % w salt. Samples from the combined stream show 0.62% w
salt. What is the ratio of the flows in the two original streams?
Use only the first decimal points (X.X) for atomic masses. R = 8.314 L*kPa/mole*K. In a reactor at 350.0 kPA and 95 °C, HCl adds to acetylene by the following reaction:2HCl(g) + C2H2(g) --> C2Cl2H4(g)39.1 g of HCl and 39.1 g of acetylene are placed into the reactor. What is the limiting reagent? What is the final volume of the system?
