Solid calcium fluoride (CaF2) reacts with sulfuric acid (H2SO4) to form solid calcium sulfate (CaSO4) and gaseous hydrogen fluoride (HF). The HF is then dissolved in water to form hydrofluoric acid. A source of calcium fluoride is fluorite ore containing 96.0 wt% CaF2 and 4.0 wt% SiO2. In a typical hydrofluoric acid manufacturing process, fluorite ore is reacted with 93 wt% aqueous sulfuric acid, supplied 15% in excess of the stoichiometric amount. 95% of the ore dissolves in the acid. The HF(g) exiting the reactor is subsequently dissolved in enough water to produce 60.0 wt% HF (aq). Calculate the product composition from the reactor, and also the amount of water required to generate a 60.0 wt% HF solution.

A gas which obeys the equation of state, PV/RT=1 +BP ,
where B is a known
temperature-dependent parameter, is fed at a steady rate to an
insulated valve where its pressure is reduced from P1 to P2. Given
that the upstream temperature of the gas is T1 and that the
constant-pressure molar heat capacity of the gas in the ideal gas
state is given by Cp* = a + bT, where a and b are known constants,
derive an expression for the temperature T2 of the gas downstream
from the valve. Express your answer in terms of the parameters
given above. Neglect the effect of any kinetic energy change across
the valve.

a. If a 6 cm diameter cylinder containing 2 g of an ideal gas at 25o C is fitted with a 5 kg piston with a 20 kg weight on the piston, calculate the pressure and volume of the ideal gas if the atmospheric pressure is 1 atm. If the 20 kg weight is removed, provide detailed comments without further calculations on what would happen. You may assume a molecular weight of 28 for the gas.
b. Calculate the energy required to heat a gas from 30o C to 150o C if the gas flow rate and pressure at the heater outlet are 1.5 m3 /min and 125 kPa absolute respectively. Assume the specific enthalpy change is about 4,000 J/mol for the process.
