Assignment Problem
Assignment Problem 1.1: A gas mixture of 100 kmol consists of carbon dioxide, oxygen, water vapor, and nitrogen at 500 K and 110 kPa. In a sample of the gas the molar fractions of CO2 and O2 are 12% and 6%, respectively. The weight fraction of H2O in the gas is 6.17%. Estimate the density of this gas at the said temperature and pressure. (Ans: 0.772 kg/m3)
Assignment Problem 1.2: A liquefied gas mixture has the following molar composition: 93.5% CH4, 4.6% C2H6, 1.2% C3H8, and 0.7% CO2. Calculate: a) Average molecular weight of the LNG mixture (Ans: 0.017 kg/mol) (b) Weight fraction of CH4 in the mixture (Ans: 0.871). (c) The gas mixture is heated to 300 K and 150 kPa, and vaporizes completely. Estimate the density of the gas mixture under these conditions (Ans: 1.022 kg/m3) Assignment Problem 1.3: A gas stored in a 30 m3 container at 340 K and 101.3 kPa is saturated with water vapor. Partial pressure of water vapour is 27.35 kPa. Determine the following of the gas mixture: a) Mole fraction of water vapor (Ans: 0.27). b) Average molecular weight of the mixture (Ans: 0.026 kg/mol). c) Total mass contained in the tank (27.985 kg). d) Mass of water vapor in the tank (5.224 kg).
