- Combustion engineering 2. A spherical tank 1.5 m in radius contains 54.55 kg of a mixture of CO 2 and N 2 . If the total pressure of the mixture is 240 kPaa and if the temperature is 26.67 o C, a) What is the partial pressure of each gas? b) Determine the volume occupied by each of each constituent gas (m 3 ).arrow_forwardGasoline with an octane number of 88 has the same knocking tendency as a mixture of iso-octane and n-heptane. Determine the weight percent of iso-octane in the gasoline. ρiso-octane = 0.6918 g/mL and ρ n-heptane = 0.684 g/mLarrow_forwardIndicate whether each statement is true or false: (a) NaCl dissolves in water but not in benzene 1C6H62 because benzene is denser than water. (b) NaCl dissolves in water but not in benzene because water has a large dipole moment and benzene has zero dipole moment. (c) NaCl dissolves in water but not in benzene because the water–ion interactions are stronger than benzene–ion interactions.arrow_forward
- A calorimeter holds 4 kg of water. Ignition of a 10-g sample of waste-derived fuel of unknown energy value yields a temperature rise of 12.5 degrees Celsius. What is the energy value of this fuel? Ignore the mass of the bomb.arrow_forwardA river has a flowrate of 3 m3/s. A stream discharges into the river at a flowrate of 0.05 m3/s. A tracer is added to the stream for research purposes. Determine the minimum concentration of tracer in mg/L that must be achieved in the stream so that 1.0 mg/L of tracer can be measured after the river and stream mix (downstream)? What mass rate in kg/d of tracer must be added to the stream? (Assume complete-mix reactor).arrow_forwardSTATE WHETHER The statements are TRUE OR FALSE please specify 1. Consider stirring a cake mix with an electric mixer. This is an adiabatic process that is irreversible because the energy stored within the system cannot be spontaneously released in a manner to cause the mass of the system to turn the paddle wheel in the opposite direction to do work on the surroundings. ( TRUE OR FALSE)? 2. When the compression process is non-quasi-equilibrium, the molecules before the piston face cannot escape fast enough, forming a high-pressure region in front of the piston. It takes more work to move the piston against this high-pressure region. Hence, a non-quasi-equilibrium compression process requires a larger work input than the corresponding quasi-equilibrium one. ( T/F) 3. A reversible expansion or compression process cannot involve unrestrained expansion or sudden compression, and thus it is non-quasi-equilibrium. (T/F) 4. A quasi-equilibrium expansion or compression process involves…arrow_forward
