A fuel gas containing 75.0 mole% methane and the balance ethane
is burned completely with 15.0 % excess air.
The stack gas leaves the furnace at 800.0 °C and is cooled to 450.0
°C in a waste-heat boiler, a heat exchanger in
which heat lost by cooling gases is used to produce steam from
liquid water for heating, power generation, or process
applications.
Taking as a basis of calculation 100.0 mol of the fuel gas fed to the furnace, calculate the amount (magnitude) of heat (MJ) that must be transferred from the gas in the waste heat boiler to accomplish the indicated cooling. Provide your answer to 3 significant figures.

Chlorine is produced from hydrogen chloride and oxygen via the following reaction at 700K and 1bar:
4HCl(g) +02(g) --> 2H2O(g)+2Cl2(g)
The data for the standard for the standard Gibbs free energy and the standard heat of formation for each species in the rxn at 298.15K are given in table below.
Standard Gibbs Free Energy (j/mol) | Standard Heat of Formation (J/mol) | |
---|---|---|
HCl(g) | -95299 | -92307 |
H2O(g) | -228572 | -241818 |

b)Based on part (a), propose the new equlibrium temperature if the production rate for chlorine is 6kmol/s, assuming ideal gas condition with the reaction pressure of 2bar.(5M)
c) An engineer has proposed to add 5kmol/s of chlorine into the reactor together with hydrogen chloride and oxygenduring the reaction to increase the chlorine production on part (a).Justify the feasibility of this proposal with calculation and explanation.(6m)

(Problem 4.3-3) Water at 298 K discharges from a nozzle and travels horizontally, hitting a flat, vertical wall. The nozzle has a diameter of 12 mm and the water leaves the nozzle with a flat velocity profile at a velocity of 6.0 m/s. Neglecting frictional resistance of the air on the jet, calculate the force in newtons on the wall.
Ans. –Rx = 4.059 N
Repeat Problem 4.3-3 for the same conditions except that the wall is inclined 45° to the vertical. The flow is frictionless. Assume no loss in energy. The amount of fluid splitting in each direction along the plate can be determined by using the continuity equation and a momentum balance. Calculate this flow division and the force on the wall.
Ans. m2 = 0.5774 kg/s, m3 = 0.09907 kg/s, –Rx = 2.030 N, –Ry = –2.030 N (force on wall).
