The reaction between ethylene and hydrogen bromide to form ethyl bromide is carried out in a continuous reactors. The product stream is analyzed and is found to contain 50 mole % C2H5Br and 33.3 % HBr. The feed to the reactor contains only ethylene and hydrogen bromide.
What would be the fractional conversion of the limiting reactant and the percentage by which the other reactant is said to be its excess.

What are the values of the indo-burma hotspot, you will need to highlight why this particular hotspot is important including its ecosystem services. You will also need to discuss why this particular hotspot is so important in terms of both local and global sustainability considering all three pillars: environment, economy and society.

When a chemical plant needs steam at multiple pressure levels, it is often economical to generate all the steam at a high pressure and then to let the steam down through pressure-reducing turbines to the desired pressure. This principle is illustrated in Figure 8.6. The downside of this approach is that as the exhaust pressure of the turbine increases, the theoretical (and actual) steam requirements increase, meaning that less energy is extracted. To illustrate this point, do the following:
a. Estimate the amount of energy extracted from 10,000 kg/h of 58.6 barg steam superheated by 165°C when connected to the following turbines (each 80% efficient):
i. Exhaust pressure is 4″ Hg absolute.
ii. Exhaust pressure is 4.82 barg.
b. Estimate the amount of energy extracted from 10,000 kg/h of saturated, 10.0 barg steam when connected to a turbine (80% efficient) exhausting at 4.82 barg.
c. Identify the locations of each of the three turbines described above on Figure 8.6.

A distillation column with a total condenser and a partial reboiler is separating ethanol and water at 1 kg/cm2 pressure. Feed is 32.0 mol% ethanol and is at 30°C. Feed flow rate is 100.0 kmol/h. The distillate product is a saturated liquid, and distillate is 80.0 mol% ethanol. The condenser removes 2,065,113 kcal/h. The bottoms is 4.0 mol% ethanol. Assume that CMO is valid. Find the number of stages and the optimum feed stage location. Data: CPL,EtOH = 24.65 cal/(mol°C) at 0°C. The enthalpy-composition diagram is given in Figure 2-4, and the y-x diagram is in Figure 2-2.

What are the four mechanisms of heat/energy transfer? Give an example for each. What happens to energy when water evaporates – gained or lost? What happens to energy when water condenses –gained or lost? Explain how thermohaline circulation of ocean water affects global temperature distribution. Must be 350 words long.
give a good explanation and examples of each. this is physical geography. they have to be long explanation.
