(c) A liquified mixture of n-butane, n-pentane and n-hexane has the following composition in 02
percent.
n - C4H10 53
n - C5H12 27
n - C6H14 20

average molecular weight of the mixture.
SECTION-C
3 (a) Air from a tank flows at a rate of 7 lbm/min at −350°F, then enters a heater where it is 03
heated, and leaves the heater as a gas at 150°F and 600 psia. Calculate the volumetric flow
rate and the specific volume of the gas leaving the heater. Molecular weight of N2 is 29
g/mol or 29 lbm/lbmol. Assume the ideal gas law.

solution at 20 mol% KOH. What is the rate of eachvstream required to prepare a 100
mol/h solution?
