- 1. Consider the Scherer coal fired power plant in the state of Georgia. It was built in the 1980's. It has a capacity to produce 3,500 MW of electricity and is one of the biggest coal fired power plants in the US. The plant burns a low grade, low sulphur content sub-bituminous coal from Wyoming (Powder River Basin coal reserve – 40% of US market supply). Coal is transported by train to the power plant from Wyoming. The reason Powder River Basin coal is used by electric utilities is that it is very low sulphur content compared to coal mined from the Appalachian region. a. Calculate the consumption rate of coal in tons per hour and tons per year. Assume the plant is operating at full capacity of 3,500 MW electrical production, is 33% efficient at converting heat into electrical energy, and the lower heating value of the sub-bituminous coal is 8,500 Btu per pound. b. If a rail car holds 100 tons coal, how many rail cars a day are required to keep the plant operating?

Put 100 kmol/s of H2 (H = 5141 kJ/kg) and 50 kmol/s of O2 (H = 4365 kJ/kg)in the system and let them react to form 100 kmol/s of H2O (H = 4929 kJ/kg).How much heat was added to the system to perform this reaction?arrow_forwardI have few minutes left please answer ASAP I will give likearrow_forward
- A chemical engineer is studying the two reactions shown in the table below. In each case, she fills a reaction vessel with some mixture of the reactants and products at a constant temperature of 100.0 °C and constant total pressure. Then, she measures the reaction enthalpy AH and reaction entropy AS of the first reaction, and the reaction enthalpy AH and reaction free energy AG of the second reaction. The results of her measurements are shown in the table. Complete the table. That is, calculate AG for the first reaction and AS for the second. (Round your answer to zero decimal places.) Then, decide whether, under the conditions the engineer has set up, the reaction is spontaneous, the reverse reaction is spontaneous, or neither forward nor reverse reaction is spontaneous because the system is at equilibrium.
