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%
you look up the specific gravity of 96% H2SO4 and find it is 1.858.calculate the weight
Natural Gas is flowing through a 10 inch schedule 40 pipe. The gas is at 109°F and 7.3 psig. The outside air temperature is 92°F. If the flow rate of the gas is 8,000 SCFM: What is the flow rate in lb/hr?
Cumene is produced by the vapour phase reaction of benzene with propylene. The fresh feeds have the following compositions: Benzene: 99% w/w benzene, 1% w/w toluene Propylene: 98% v/v propylene,

I) Sulphur dioxide (SO2) with a volumetric flow rate 5000cm3/s at 1 bar and 1000C is mixed with a second SO2 stream flowing at 2500cm3/s at 2 bar and 200C. The process occurs at steady state. You may assume ideal gas behaviour. For SO2 take the heat capacity at constant pressure to be CP/R = 3.267+5
