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%
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
A stream of steam at 15 bar and 300 oC is used to produce work using a steam turbine. a. Before the turbine, steam flows in a pipe (4 cm in diameter) at a mass flow rate of 3 g/s. Calculate the mean velocity in the pipe
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
