If we have set up a spreadsheet to evaluate the heat capacity integral like the example spreadsheet from the
lecture notes, we can use it to evaluate the heat capacity integral in each case, and simply enter the heat
capacity parameters and read out the value of the integral:

Q = H = n × R × ICPH

(a) If 10 mol of SO2 is heated from 200 to 1100C, the heat requirement will be 10*R*ICPH, where ICPH
is the heat capacity integral. Using our spreadsheet to evaluate ICPH, we get
T1 (K) T2 (K) A B (1/K) C (1/K ) D (K ) ICPH (K)
2 2

473.15 1373.15 5.699 8.01E-04 0 -1.02E+05 5.65E+03


So, the heat requirement is 10 mol*8.314 J mol K *5650 K = 469700 J = 470 kJ
-1 -1

(b) Similarly, if we heat 12 moles of propane from 250 to 1200 C, the heat requirement is 12*R*ICPH.
Putting the heat capacity parameters for propane and these temperatures into the ICPH spreadsheet
gives
T1 (K) T2 (K) A B (1/K) C (1/K2) D (K2) ICPH (K)
523.15 1473.15 1.213 2.88E-02 -8.82E-06 0.00E+00 1.95E+04
So, the total heat requirement is 12 mol*8.314 J mol-1 K-1*19500 K = 1.95106 J = 1950 kJ

4.2 (7th edition Prob. 4.2)


If we have set up a spreadsheet to evaluate the heat capacity integral like the example spreadsheet from the
lecture notes, we can use it to evaluate the heat capacity integral in each case, and simply vary the final
temperature until we get the desired Q.
(a) If 800 kJ is added to 10 mol of ethylene, then Q = H = 800000 J/10 mol = 80000 J mol . So, H/R =
-1

80000 J mol-1 /8.314 J mol-1 K-1 = 9622 K, so the integral of Cp/R from 200C (473 K) to the final
temperature should be 9622 K. Using our spreadsheet to evaluate this, we get

473 1374.4 1.424 1.44E-02 -4.39E-06 0.00E+00 9.622E+03
So, the final temperature is 1374 K.

(b) Similarly, if we add 2500 kJ to 15 mol of 1-butene, we have H/R = 2500000 J / (15 mol *8.314 J mol-
1
K-1 )= 20045 K. Putting the heat capacity coefficients for 1-butene into the spreadsheet and trying
final temperatures until we get this value, we get
T1 (K) T2 (K) A B (1/K) C (1/K2) D (K2) ICPH (K)
533 1414 1.967 3.16E-02 -9.87E-06 0.00E+00 2.005E+04
So, the final temperature is 1414 K.
(c) This is the same, but in English units, in which we can use R = 1.986 Btu lbmol-1 R-1, so H/R = 106
Btu / (40 lbmol *1.986 Btu lbmol-1 R-1) = 12588 R = 6993 K. The initial temperature of 500 F is 533
K. So, we get
T1 (K) T2 (K) A B (1/K) C (1/K2) D (K2) ICPH (K)
533 1202.7 1.424 1.44E-02 -4.39E-06 0.00E+00 6.994E+03
And the final temperature is 1203 K = 1705 F.

To compute the outlet temperature, use

But first the heat capacity at 373.15 K must be determine for each compound using the Table C.1 and Eqn

This can easily be done in a spreadsheet.

Looking in table A.2, we are reminded that the gas constant is R = 0.7302 ft3 atm (lb mol)-1 R-1 in the sort
of units used in this problem, so we can convert the volumetric flow rate to a molar flow rate using the ideal
gas law (air at atmospheric conditions is very nearly an ideal gas).
n = PV/RT = 1 atm * 250 ft s / (10.7302 ft atm lbmol R * (122R + 459.7R ) =

n = 0.59 lbmol s-1

(a) In this part, we use equation 4.14
reduced temperature at another reduced temperature. The critical temperature for n-pentane (from appendix
B) is 469.7 K. So, 25C corresponds to a reduced temperature of Tr1 = 298.15/469.7 = 0.6348. The normal
boiling point for n-pentane (also from appendix B) is 309.2 K, which corresponds to a reduced temperature
Tr2 = 309.2/469.7 = 0.6583. So, using equation 4.14, we have

This is essentially exact agreement with the handbook value (it differs by 0.03%).

(b) In this part, we estimate the heat of vaporization at the normal boiling point without using the
information on the heat of vaporization at 25C, using equation 4.13
also use the critical pressure, Pc = 33.70 bar for n-pentane. Then, using equation 4.13:

values at -18, -16, and -14 C, which are 1.446,1.573, and 1.708 bar, respectively. So, we could

the slope as

values at 24, 26, and 28 C, which are 6.458,6.854, and 7.269 bar, respectively. So, we could

values at 35, 40, and 45 C, which are 8.87, 10.166 and 11.599 bar, respectively. So, we could

heat at some other temperature, and may be written as:

For chloroform, the critical temperature is 536.4 K and the normal boiling point is 334.3 K. At 273 K, Tr1

where Pc, the critical pressure, must be given in bar. For chloroform, we get

dividing by the molecular weight of 119.4 g mol-1 gives 247.7 J g-1. This is just 0.3% above the handbook

Now, we can use generalized correlations to find the liquid and vapor volumes. The critical properties of
benzene are Tc = 562.2 K, Pc = 48.98 bar,  = 0.210, Zc = 0.271, and Vc = 259 cm mol .

So, V = 28370 --- 82.6 = 28288 cm3 mol-1. Finally, putting this all together, we have

So, V = 32198 --- 140.5 = 32058 cm3 mol-1. Finally, putting this all together, we have

Now, we can use generalized correlations to find the liquid and vapor volumes. The critical properties of
toluene are Tc = 591.8 K, Pc = 41.06 bar,  = 0.262, Zc = 0.264, and Vc = 316 cm3 mol-1.

So, our final answer is H = 33.3 kJ/mol. This agrees with the value in table B.2 to within about 0.4%,
which is about the precision of our calculations --- essentially exact agreement.

(b) Now, we repeat the whole thing for phenol --- just for practice:

Now, we can use generalized correlations to find the liquid and vapor volumes. The critical properties of
phenol are Tc = 694.3 K, Pc = 61.3 bar,  = 0.444, Zc = 0.243, and Vc = 229 cm3 mol-1.

So, V = 36275 --- 80.7 = 36195 cm3 mol-1. Finally, putting this all together, we have

To find the total heat exchanger duty, we must consider three process steps: (1) heating of the subcooled
liquid from 300 K to its saturation temperature at 3 bar, (2) vaporization at the saturation temperature, and
(3) heating of the vapor from the saturation temperature to 500 K.
For the first step, we do a heat capacity integral from 300 K to 368.0 K, using the liquid phase heat
capacity:

For the second step, we need the heat of vaporization at 3 bar and 368.0 K. In table B.2, we find the heat
of vaporization at the normal boiling point (337.9 K) is 35.21 kJ/mol. To find the heat of vaporization at
368 K, we can apply the Watson equation (p. 134 of SVNA). This gives:

Comparing these, we see that the vaporization step has the largest contribution to the overall heat
requirement. Adding them gives Q = H = 62.64 kJ/mol/. If the total methanol flow is 100 kmol/hr =
27.78 mol/s, then the total heat exchanger duty is 62.64*27.78 = 1740.13 kW.

The heat of combustion of 6 CH3OH(g) is the heat of reaction for
6 CH3OH(g) + 9 O2(g)  6 CO2(g) + 12 H2O(g)
This is given by Hrxn = 6*Hf(CO2(g) ) + 12*Hf(H2O(g)) - 6*Hf(CH3OH(g) ) = 6*(-393.51) + 12*(-
241.82) -6*(-200.66) = -4059 kJ mol-1.

The heat of combustion of C6H12(g) (assumed to be 1-hexene, though it doesn't really say and there are many
other possible C6H12 isomers) is given by the heat of reaction for
C6H12(g) + 9 O2  6 CO2(g) + 6 H2O(g)
This is given by Hrxn = 6*Hf(CO2(g) ) +6*Hf(H2O(g)) - Hf(C6H12(g) ) = 6*(-393.51) + 6*(-241.82) -
(-41.95) = -3770 kJ mol-1.

The difference between these two heats of combustion is the heat of reaction for the condensation reaction
given in the problem statement. That is, subtracting the second combustion reaction above from the first
gives
6 CH3OH(g)  C6H12(g) + 6 H2O(g)
For which the heat of reaction is -4059 - (-3770) = -289 kJ/mol.

The heat of combustion of ethylene at 25C (with water vapor product) is the heat of reaction for
C2H4(g) +3 O2(g)  2 CO2(g) + 2 H2O(g)
This is given by Hrxn = 2*Hf(CO2(g) ) + 2*Hf(H2O(g)) - Hf(C2H4(g) ) = 2*(-393.51) + 2*(-241.82) -

3*1.25*(79/21) = 14.1 moles of N2, and integrating the heat capacity of this mixture to get get H/R =
159120 K gives a final temperature of 2198 K.
(c) and (d) are the same as (a) and (b), but with different numbers that lead to final temperatures of 1951
and 1609 K, respectively
(e) Here, we can add the heat required to heat the air from 298K to 773K to the heat of reaction. We can
imagine a path in which we cool the air from 773K to 298K (removing heat H1 = 309424 J per mol
C2H4 burned), carry out the reaction at 298K (releasing the standard heat of reaction, Hrxn = -1.32310 )
6

and then heat the products with both the heat removed to cool the air to 298K and the heat of reaction
(Htot = 1.66310 J per mol C2H4 burned), so the total Htot /R is 196330 K. Both the heat removed to
6

cool the air from 773 to 298 K and the heat required to heat the reaction products to the final temperature
are again computed using the heat capacity integrating spreadsheet. This gives a final temperature of
2282 K. To download the spreadsheet I used to solve this problem, click here.

NOTE: A problem with this homework problem is that several of the final temperatures are above 2000 K,
whereas the heat capacity expressions used (from table C.1 in the book) are only valid up to 2000
K. So, the results for parts (a), (b), and (e) are probably all incorrect (they are the correct answers
to the homework problem, but probably are not good values for the actual adiabaic flame
temperature of ethylene).

C2H4 + 3O2 = 2CO2 + 2H2O(g)

ΔH298= [2⋅(−241818) + 2⋅(−393509) − 52510] = 1323164 J/mol

Parts (a) - (d) can be worked exactly as Example 4.7. However, with
Mathcad capable of doing the iteration, it is simpler to proceed differently.

The heat of reaction at 650C is -2716 kJ/mol. This is only slightly different from the heat of reaction at
standard conditions. It just happens that the average heat capacity of the reactants and products is about
the same over this temperature range.

The heat of combustion is defined as the heat of reaction for
CO2(g) + 2 H2O (l) + N2(g)  (NH2)2CO(s) + 3/2 O2(g)
Because the number given for the heat of combustion is positive, we know that it is for formation of urea
plus oxygen from the combustion products (the reverse of the combustion reaction).

So, the heat of combustion at 25C is


Hcomb(298) = ½*Hf(O2(g)) + Hf((NH2)2CO(s)) - Hf(CO2(g)) - 2*Hf(H2O(l)) - Hf(N2(g))
We know all of the quantities in the above equation except the heat of formation of urea. So, we can put
the numbers in and solve for
Hf((NH2)2CO(s)) = Hf(CO2(g)) + 2*Hf(H2O(l)) + Hf(N2(g)) ---1.5*Hf(O2(g)) + Hcomb(298)
Hf((NH2)2CO(s)) = -393.509 + 2*(-285.83) + 0 --- 1.5*0 + 631.66 = -333.5 kJ/mol.

4.31 (7th edition Prob. 4.27)


(a) There is nothing profound here. If we compute the heat of combustion with water as a liquid product,
then the value we get is higher (larger in absolute value) than if we compute it with water as a vapor
product. They differ by the value of the heat of vaporization of water at 25C, which is 44012 J mol-1.
(b) The heat of combustion for methane with liquid water as the product is the heat of reaction for CH4(g)
+ 3 O2(g)  CO2(g) + 2 H2O(l), which is Hrxn = Hf(CO2(g) ) + 2*Hf(H2O(l)) - Hf(CH4(g) ) = -
393.51 + 2*(-285.83) -(-74.52) = -890.7 kJ mol-1. With water vapor as the product, it is -802.6 kJ/mol.
Heating values for gaseous fuels are more commonly expressed in Btu per standard cubic foot. If we
treat methane as an ideal gas and choose the commonly used 'standard conditions' for natural gas of
60F and 1 atm, then at there will be n/V = P/RT = 1 atm/(0.7302 SCF atm lbmol-1 R-1 * 519.7 R) =
0.00264 lbmol /SCF= 1.195 mol /SCF. Multiplying this by the higher heating value in kJ/mol gives
1.195*-890.7= -1064 kJ/SCF = -1009 Btu/SCF (Perry's handbook lists 1012 Btu ft-3, so we probably
did it right). Multiplying it by the lower heating value gives -909 Btu/SCF. So, the HHV = 1009
Btu/SCF and the LHV = 909 Btu/SCF.
(c) Similarly, the heat of combustion with liquid water product for n-decane is the heat of reaction for
C10H22(l) + 15.5 O2(g) 10 CO2(g) + 11 H2O(l), which is Hrxn = 10*Hf(CO2(g) ) + 11*Hf(H2O(l)) -
Hf(C10H22(l) ) = 10*(-393.51) + 11*(-285.83) -(-249.7) = -6829.5 kJ mol-1. Similarly, the value with
gas phase water product is -6345.4 kJ mol-1. For liquid fuels, the heating value is usually expressed as
Btu per gallon of the liquid. The density of n-decane (from Perry's handbook) is 0.73 g cm , and the
-3

molecular weight is 142.3 g mol-1, so we get HHV = 6829.5 kJ mol-1 / 143 g mol-1 * 0.73 g cm-3 = 34.86
kJ/cm3 * 3785 cm3 gal-1 * 0.9478 Btu kJ-1 = 125000 Btu gal-1. Likewise, the lower heating value is
116000 Btu gal-1.

This value is for the constant-volume reaction:

Assuming ideal gases and with symbols representing total properties,

This value is for the constant-V reaction, whereas the STANDARD reaction is at const. P.
However, for ideal gases H = f(T), and for liquids H is a very weak function of P. We
therefore take the above value as the standard value, and for the specified reaction:

The enthalpy balance for this steady-state flow process in which no non-flow work is done simply gives Q
= H, where H is the enthalpy of the ethanol stream leaving the reactor minus the enthalpy of the ethylene
and water entering the reactor. To compute the enthalpy change, we can use an imaginary 2-step path in
which we first cool the ethane and water from 320C to 25C, and then carry out the reaction. The total
enthalpy change will be the sum of the entropy change for the two steps:


298.15 K
H  C pfeed dT  H rxn
o
,298.15 K
593.15 K
The choice of doing the heat capacity integral first (from 320 to 25C) is particularly convenient because
the final temperature happens to be the standard temperature for heats of formation. In general, if we have
reactants and products at different temperatures, we would have to do two heat capacity integrals --- one
from the feed temperature to 298.15 K and one from 298.15 K back to the product temperature.

The heat of reaction is


Hrxn = Hf(C2H5OH(l)) - Hf(H2O(g)) --- Hf(C2H4(g))
Hrxn = -277690 --- (-241818) --- (52510) = -88382 J/mol

We can use the handy spreadsheet from the lecture notes to evaluate the heat capacity integral:

Thus, the total heat load of the process is
Q = H = -88380 --- 27270 = -115560 J/mol = -115.6 kJ/mol
We must remove 115.6 kJ of heat from the reactor for each mole of ethanol produced.

Let x1 be the extent of the first reaction and x2 be the extent of the second reaction, defined so that they are
extensive extents of reaction with units of moles, so that the number of moles of each species coming out
of the reactor are
nCH4 = nCH4,o - x1
nH2O = nH2O,o - x1 - x2
nCO = x1 - x2
nH2 = 3x1 + x2
and nCO2 = x2

Given the reactor outlet composition in mole fractions, and doing the problem on a 'per mole of outlet gas'
basis, the number of moles of each species coming out is just the given mole fractions, so we have
nCH4 = nCH4,o - x1 = 0
nH2O = nH2O,o - x1 - x2 = 0.1725
nCO = x1 - x2 = 0.1725
nH2 = 3x1 + x2 = 0.6275
and nCO2 = x2 = 0.0275
Note that because the four given mole fractions sum to 1, the mole fraction of CH4 in the outlet (not
explicitly given) is zero. Above, we have 5 equations in 4 unknowns (x1, x2, nCH4,o, and nH2O,o), but
fortunately they are consistent. From them, we get x2 = 0.0275, x1 = 0.2000, nCH4,o = 0.2000, and nH2O,o =
0.4000. That is, for each mole of the product stream, 0.4 moles of H2O and 0.2 moles of CH4 are fed to
the reactor, and 0.2 moles of reaction 1 occur and 0.0275 moles of reaction 2 occur.
H = Q. The heat input is
equal to the enthalpy difference between the product stream and the reactant stream. This can be
computed as the sum of three steps:
(1) The change in enthalpy when 0.4 mol H2O and 0.2 mol CH4 are cooled from 500 ºC to 25 º C

le of fuel (0.75 mol of methane and 0.25 mol of ethane). Because we use excess
air, we can safely assume complete combustion of the fuel to give CO2 and water. So, we have two
combustion reactions:
CH4 + 2 O2  CO2 + 2 H2O
C2H6 + 7/2 O2  2CO2 + 3 H2O
Burning the 0.75 mol of CH4 requires 2*0.75 = 1.5 mol of O2, and burning the 0.25 mol of C2H6 requires
0.25*7/2 = 7/8 = 0.875 mol O2. So, the total O2 required for stoichiometric combustion of the fuel is 2.375
mol O2 per mole of fuel. If we use 80% excess air, that means we have 1.8 times this much O2, and the O2
feed rate is 1.8*2.375 = 4.275 mol O2 per mole of fuel. Because we are using air, we get 79/21 moles of
N2 for every mole of O2, and therefore the N2 feed rate is 79/21*4.275 = 16.08 mol N2 per mole of fuel. So,
the feed to the furnace is (per mole of fuel)

0.75 mol CH4


0.25 mol C2H6
4.275 mol O2
16.08 mol N2

The flue gas has the same amount of N2 as the feed, but all of the CH4 and C2H6 (and some of the O2) have
been converted to CO2 and H2O. The 0.75 mol of CH4 produces 0.75 mol of CO2 and 1.5 mol of H2O. The
0.25 mol C2H6 produces 0.5 mol CO2 and 0.75 mol H2O. We already figured out that the stoichiometric O2
(the amount used up in burning the fuel) is 2.375 mol O2, so we have 4.275 --- 2.375 = 1.9 mol O2 remaining
in the flue gas (this is the 80% excess O2). So the flue gas leaving the furnace is (per mole of fuel)
1.9 mol O2
1.25 mol CO2
2.25 mol H2O
16.08 mol N2

The energy balance is simply Q = H, where H is the enthalpy change between the feed stream and the
flue gas stream and Q is specified as -8105 kJ per kgmol of fuel (or J per mol of fuel). We can compute
the total H from feed to flue gas using a hypothetical three-step process in which we cool the feed from
30C to 25C, then react it at 25C, then heat it to the flue gas outlet temperature (which we are supposed
to find). So, we have

We know Q, and we can compute the first heat capacity integral and the standard enthalpy of reaction, then
we can find the flue gas temperature (by trial and error) that satisfies the above energy balance. For the
integral of the feed heat capacity, we can use the same spreadsheet as always:

For convenience, I have entered the heat capacity coefficients of the individual species, which I then add
up (multiplied by the number of moles of each species) to get the total heat capacity coefficients of the
mixture. Note that I can type in the formula once (for A) and then fill right to get B, C, and D. So, this
gives us


298.15 K
C pfeed dT  375R  3118 J mol-1

The total heat of reaction is 0.75 times the enthalpy of reaction for CH4 + 2 O2  CO2 + 2 H2O, plus 0.25
times the enthalpy of reaction for CH4 + 2 O2  CO2 + 2 H2O, or
Hrxn =0.75*(Hf(CO2) +2Hf(H2O) --- Hf(CH4)) + 0.25*(2Hf(CO2) +3Hf(H2O) --- Hf(C2H6))

Hrxn =1.25*(-393509)+2.25(-241818) ---0.75(-74520) --- 0.25(-83820) = -959132 J mol

So, our energy balance becomes

H  3118 J mol-1  959132 J mol-1  C pflue dT  800000 J mol-1
298.15 K

So, C pflue dT = 162250 J mol-1. So, we can put the flue gas composition into the heat capacity
298.15 K
integral and try different final temperatures until we get this value:

4.38 (7th edition Prob. 4.34)


On a basis of 1 mol of gas entering, we have 0.15 mol SO2, 0.2 mol O2, and 0.65 mol N2 in the inlet stream.
If 86% of the SO2 is further oxidized to SO3, then 0.86*0.15 = 0.129 mol SO2 is oxidized, producing 0.129
mol SO3 by the reaction SO2 + ½ O2  SO3. This also consumes ½ * 0.129 = 0.0645 mol O2. So, in the
exit stream we have 0.021 mol SO2, 0.129 mol SO3, 0.1355 mol O2, and 0.65 mol N2. Notice that for every
1 mol of gas entering, we only have a total of 0.9355 mol leaving.

Since the entrance and exit temperatures are different, to compute the net heat removal requirement we
could either compute the heat required to heat the reactants from 400C to 500C and then compute the
heat of reaction at 500C, or we could compute the heat of reaction at 400 C and then compute the heat
required to heat the products from 400C to 500C. The net heat requirement (the sum of these 2 steps)
will be the same either way. Of course, we could also cool the whole inlet stream to 298K, add the heat of
reaction at that temperature, and then heat the whole product stream to 500°C. That would also give the
same answer.

Note: Light blue fields are inputs, pink fields are the final output.

So, the heat of reaction at 400C is -98.596 kJ per mol of SO2 reacted. If 0.129 mol reacts, then the heat
released is -98.596*0.129 = -12.719 kJ.

Now, we want to find the heat input required to increase the temperature of the products from 400C to
500C. We can make a modified heat capacity integral spreadsheet that adds up the total heat capacity of
the mixture components to get the total heat capacity and then computes the integral. This is shown below,

So, the heat capacity integral is 416.8 K mol. Notice that since we multiplied the polynomial coefficients
by the number of moles of each species, the integral is now in terms of the total heat capacity for the number
of moles specified and has units of K mol, rather than just K. Multiplying by R = 0.008314 kJ mol K
-1

gives the heat requirement as 3.465 kJ. So, the reaction releases 12.719 kJ, and 3.465 kJ of this is required
to heat the products to 500C. Therefore, -12.719 + 3.465 = -9.25 kJ has to be removed per mole of feed
gas fed to the catalytic converter.

This problem is very much like the previous one. We will work it on the basis of 1 mol of CO fed to the
reactor. Thus, the feed is 1 mol CO and 1 mol H2O. If 65% of the H2O (and by stoichiometry therefore alse
65% of the CO) is converted, then the product is 0.35 mol CO, 0.35 mol H2O, 0.65 mol CO2, and 0.65 mol

from 398.15 K to 698.15 K.

Now, we compute the heat of reaction at 698.15 K in the same way as in the lecture notes and the previous

Note: Light blue fields are inputs, pink fields are the final output.

So, the heat of reaction is ---37.734 kJ per mol of CO reacted. If 0.6 mol of CO reacts, then 37.734*0.6 =
22.64 kJ is released by the reaction. So, the net heat removal rate is 22.64 --- 19.90 = 2.74 kJ per mol of CO
fed to the reactor (1.37 kJ per mole of feed). The exothermicity of the reaction is greater than the heat
needed for the temperature increase, so the net result is that heat has to be removed.

Total dry air = N2 in air + O2 in air = 85.051 - x + 15.124 + x = 100.175 lbmol

Since air is 21 mol % O2,

O2 in air = 15.124 + x = 21.037 lbmol


N2 in air = 85.051 - x = 79.138 lbmol
N2 in flue gas = 79.138 + 0.149 = 79.287 lbmol

[The factor 0.42993 converts from joules on the basis of moles to BTU on the

Addition of these three reactions gives the "reaction" in the drier, except for
some O2, N2, and H2O that pass through unchanged. Addition of the
corresponding delta H values gives the standard heat of reaction at 298 K:

If we work from a basis of 1 mole of N2 and 1 mole of C2H2 entering the reactor, then we have 2 moles of
gas entering the reactor, and (since there is no mole change in the reaction) 2 moles of gas leaving the
reactor. If this case is 24.2 mol-% HCN, then the total number of moles of HCN is 2*0.242 = 0.484. The
number of moles of reaction that has occurred (as written) is 0.242 moles, and the number of moles of N2
and C2H2 remaining are (1-0.242) = 0.758 moles each. The total heat supplied to the reactor, on this
basis, will therefore be 0.242 times the heat of reaction at 298 K (conveniently also the temperature at

which the reactants enter the reactor) plus the heat required to heat 0.748 mol N2, 0.748 mol C2H2 and
0.484 mol HCN from 298 K to 873 K. The heat of reaction is
Hrxn = 2*Hf(HCN(g)) - Hf(N2(g)) - Hf(C2H2(g))
Hrxn = 2*135100 --- 0 --- 227480 = 42720 J mol-1
Since 0.242 mol of reaction occurs, 0.242*42720 = 10338 J of heat input is required to carry out the reaction
at 298.15 K

We can use a handy-dandy spreadsheet like the one provided in the notes to compute the heat capacity

So, the total heat input is 10338 + 49913 = 60250 J per mole of N2 and C2H2 entering the reactor. This is
60250/2 = 30125 J per mole of total inlet or outlet stream, or 60250/0.484 = 124500 J per mole of HCN

Saturated because the large ΔHlv overwhelms the sensible heat associated with superheat.
Water because it is cheap, available, non-toxic, and has a large ΔHlv.
The lower energy content is a result of the decrease in ΔHlv with increasing T, and hence P.
However, higher pressures allow higher temperature levels.

(a) The reaction for oxidation of glucose to CO2 and water is the same as the combustion reaction:
C6H12O6(s) + 6 O2(g)  6 CO2(g) + 6 H2O(l)
The heat of reaction for this reaction is
Hrxn = 6*Hf(CO2(g)) + 6*Hf(H2O(l)) --- Hf(C6H12O6(s)) --- 6*Hf(O2(g))
Hrxn = 6*(-393.509) + 6*(-285.83) --- (-1274.4) --- 6*(0) = -2801.6 kJ/mol

(b) The total energy consumption for a 57 kg person (not a very big person) is 150 kJ/kg * 57 kg = 8550
kJ. Given that oxidation of glucose releases 2801.6 kJ/mol, this requires 8550/2802 = 3.05 moles of glucose
per day. The molecular weight of glucose is 180.16 g/mol, so this is 550 g of glucose.

(c) Oxidation of 3.05 moles of glucose produces 18.3 moles of CO2, or 806 g of CO2. Multiplying this by
275 million people gives 2.2210 g/day = 2.2210 kg/day = 222000 metric tons per day = 81 million
11 8

metric tons per year.

(b) For complete combustion of 1 mole of fuel and 50% excess air, the exit gas will contain
the following numbers of moles:

Air and fuel enter at 25 C and combustion products leave at 600 C.
