Question
Dinitrogen pentoxide decomposes in the gas phase to form nitrogen dioxide and oxygen gas. The reaction is first order in dinitrogen pentoxide and has a half-life of 2.81h at 25 ∘C
If a 1.5 L reaction vessel initially contains 735 torr of N2O5 at 25 ∘C, what partial pressure of O2 will be present in the vessel after 230 minutes?

- Two perfectly mixed vessels of 10 liters each and both at 1 atm and 120 °C are respectively filled with n-butanol C4H9OH and air. At time t = 0, the two vessels are via a pipe connected to each other at 120 °C and 1 atm. This pipe has a length of 10 cm and a diameter of 1 cm. No reaction occurs during the mixing of the gases. All performing gas phases are assumed to be ideal. For the calculation of the molecular diffusivity, the Fuller's equation used. How long does it take for the partial pressure of n-butanol in the air vessel to reach 0.01 atm (in h)? Hints for the second part: - at any time point (so also at t= 0) forms the formula derived in the course for equimolar counter-diffusion under steady state conditions is a good approximation for the occurring flux. - at any time holds that c(butanol, vessel 1) = 31 mol/m3 - c(butanol, vessel 2) with the two concentrations in mol/m3 answer: t = 2.45 harrow_forwardPlease only solve part Darrow_forwardPart a plz!arrow_forward
- 4. Pure octane has a boiling point of 125.7 °C, but can be steam distilled with water at a tem- perature of 90 °C. Calculate the mass of octane that codistills with each gram of water and the percent composition of the vapor that is produced during the steam distillation. [Again, you'll need the vapor pressure of water at the steam distillation temp to solve this problem!] Note that if you multiply the second equation from question 3 above by the MW of both the oil and water, you get: mass oil/mass water = (P°) (MW)/ (Pwater) (MW water)arrow_forwardOne kmol of benzene gas (C6H6) enters a combustion chamber designed to operate at steady state where it is mixed and burned with air.
