- As shown below, one side of a rigid, insulated container initially holds 2 m3of air at 27oC, 0.3MPa. The air is separated by a thin membrane from an evacuated volume of 3 m3. Owing tothe pressure of the air, the membrane stretches and eventually bursts, allowing the air to occupythe full volume. Assuming the ideal gas model for the air, determine:a) The mass of the air, in kg.b) The final temperature of the air, in K.c) The final pressure of air, in MPa.arrow_forwardA rectifying column consists of a tube arranged vertically and supplied at the bottom with a mixture of benzene and toluene as vapor. At the top, a condenser returns some of the product as a reflux which flows in a thin film down the inner wall of the tube. At one point in the column, the vapor contains 60 mol% benzene and the adjacent liquid reflux contains 51 mol% benzene. The temperature at this point is 92°C. Assuming the diffusional resistance to vapor transfer to be equivalent to the diffusional resistance of a štagnant vapor layer 0.5 mm thick, calculate the rate of interchange of benzene and toluene between vapor and liquid. The molar latent heats of the two materials can be taken as equal. The vapour pressure of toluene at 92°C is 44.0 kN/m2 and the diffusivity of the vapors is 0.053 cm?/s.arrow_forwardSuppose that the atmosphere were perfectly uniform, witha density throughout equal to that of air at 0°C, 1.3 g L-1. Calculate the thickness of such an atmosphere that would cause a pressure of exactly 1 standard atm at the Earth’s surface.arrow_forward
