Problem on weight fraction
A gas contains 350 ppm of H2S in CO2 at 72°F and 1.53 atm pressure. If the gas is liquified, what is the weight fraction H2S?

Now we consider 1liter of CO2 at 72deg F {[K] ≡ (72+ 459.67) × 5/9}=295.3722 K 1.53 atm
So No moles n= PV/RT =1.53atm*1liter/(0.08205liter-atm/K-mole*295.3722) =0.063131mole
So wt of CO = 0.063131mole*28g/mole =1.76767g
Now 350 ppm H2S would have a volume 350 microlitre ( µL ) per litre, = 350 ppm =350E-6 litre
So No of moles H2S = n= PV/RT =1.53atm*(350E-6)liter/(0.08205liter-atm/K-mole*295.3722K) = 2.20959E-05 mole
The MW H2S = 34.116g/mole
So wt of H2S = 0.000753823 g
So total weight =1.768423823g
So %wt H2S = (0.0007538236/1.768423823g)*100%=0.04262%
At atmospheric pressure ethyl acetate and ethyl alcohol form an azeotropic mixture containing 53.9% mole of ethyl acetate and boiling at 71.8°C. a) Estimate the values of A & B in the empirical van Laar equation
A steady-state flow process is used to heat methanol in a tank. The incoming stream is at 2 bar and 25 oC and has a flow rate of 5 kg/s. The outgoing stream is at 1 bar, 100 oC. Heating is provided by a heating coil immersed in a tank. Given the
The Clausius-Clapeyron equation gives us an expression for dP/dT. Now we will derive an analog to the Clausius-Clapeyron equation by obtaining an expression for dT/dµ when two phases are at equilibrium. For simplicity, let’s derive this fo
