- A reaction is 2nd order with respect to [ Reactant A ]. If the rate constant from the equation of the trendline in Excel is 3.22 x 10 3 (units deliberately omitted), and the initial concentration is 0.437 M A, then what is the[ Reactant A] (in M A) at 300 minutes? IMPORTANT: When entering your answer: • Enter the number only (no units) • Do not leave any spaces • Use a leading zero before the decimal when necessary • Report your number to 3 decimal places (regardless of the significant figures) • Correctly round your answer to the 3rd decimal place (margin of allowed error is only + 0.001, so always use un-rounded numbers in your calculations). If the last digits are zeros they will not display once you click away, but the answer will still be marked correct.

The feed mixture contains 5% mol C3, 15% mol i-C4, 35% mol n-C4, 20% mol i-C-5, and 25% mol n-Cs. The feed has a flow rate of 200 kmol/h and enters as a liquid at the boiling point. It is desired to recover 96% mole fraction of the light key in the distillate and 92% of the heavy key in the bottom product. The average relative volatility (a) values are given in Table 1.

- 10. A container is separated into two halves by a membrane. Your lab partner assistant, Thurmond, is supposed to place a MgCl2 solution on side 1 and a NaCl solution on side 2. He is then supposed to measure the rate of water movement across the membrane. Unfortunately, Thurmond is not very good about keeping complete lab notes and he has forgotten to write down some data and calculations. Using your knowledge of osmosis, complete the following table. Temperature is 15°C and the hydraulic conductivity for the membrane is 0.4 ml/atm sec.
