A normal boiling point of Cd(l) is 1038K. At this temperature AHyar is 23,900(J/mol).“ (a) In 2 atm, find boiling point of Cde

Cyclohexanol is a highly desired chemical precursor for the production of nylon (billions of kilograms of cyclohexanol are produced annually!). Industrially, cyclohexanol can be formed by the oxidation of cyclohexane over cobalt catalysts. You have a vapor mixture of 50 mol.% cyclohexane and 50 mol.% cyclohexanol. You want to cool and condense your vapor mixture to form a vapor product and a liquid product. a. This problem contains a vapor-liquid system. Using the Gibbs phase rule, determine the number of degrees of freedom in a vapor-liquid equilibrium. b. Your vapor mixture fills a drum that is 300 L in volume. At atmospheric pressure and at 200°C, how many moles of vapor do you have? *c. You decide to feed your vapor mixture to the condenser at 5 mol/s. You measure your vapor product and see that it comes out at 760 mmHg and 75 mol.% cyclohexane. Using Raoult’s law and Antoine’s Equation, determine your outlet temperature. *d. Using the information given in the problem statement…

1) Immiscible Liquid-Liquid Extraction: A feed of 10,500 kg/hr consists of 12 wt% acetic acid in water. The removal of acetic acid is to be accomplished by liquid-liquid extraction in water at 25°C. The raffinate is to contain no more than 1 wt% acetic acid. K The following four solvents (and accompanying distribution coefficients are being considered. Water and each solvent can be considered immiscible. SOLVENT Methyl acetate 1.253 Isopropyl ether 0.929 Heptadecanol 0.612 For each solvent, estimate the flow rate (kg/hr) if a single equilibrium stage is used to achieve the desired separation. Chloroform 0.578 Discuss the solvent choices and indicate which may be the best option.
