Engineering chemistry problem.
In industry, an ethylene oxide is produced with air. Under operating conditions, much of the ethylene is converted to ethylene oxide, another part is fully oxidized to CO2 and water, and the rest is unreacted. The gases leave the reactor and go to an absorption column where the water will absorb all the ethylene oxide. The exhaust gases from the absorption column have 9.6% CO2, 6.4% C2H4, 3% O2, and 81% N2. % of ethylene entering the reactor is converted to ethylene oxide and what% remains unreacted? What is the ethylene / air ratio?

4. A pharmaceutical firm produces different brands
of a drug; I, II, III and IV. Each brand contains volume(s) of at
least one of chemical X or Y or both. Product I requires a
combination of two centimeters square of chemical X and a unit
square of chemical Y given a resource constraint of 16. A unit
square of chemical X and two centimeters square of chemical Y is
needed to produce product II given a resource constraint of 11.
Product III needs only chemical X and requires at least two
centimeters square volume of chemical X while product IV requires a
unit centimeter square of chemical X and three centimeters square
of chemical Y with a constraint of 15. The company makes a profit
of ¢3000 for using a unit of X and ¢5000 for a unit of Y.
(i) Write four inequalities involving X and Y that
reflect the conditions above
(ii) Determine, graphically, the best possible
combinations of X and Y for the company.
(iii) Using the objective function, determine the best
combination that maximizes the company’s profit.

5. SBL Ltd decided on the 5th of February to start
producing bottled water. By 14th March, SBL Ltd had put all the
needed structures at a cost of ¢1000 and indicated a profit before
operation to be - ¢1000. They reported that the cost of producing
any of their product depends on the function 3Q + 0.004Q2. SBL Ltd
further, indicated that additional product produced increases
profit by a margin defined by 7 – 0.012Q. Determine;
(i) The total cost function of SBL Ltd
(ii) The profit function of SBL Ltd
(iii) The total revenue function of SBL Ltd (Hint:
Profit = TR – TC)
(iv) The output level that maximizes the firm’s
revenue.
