The atmosphere slowly oxidizes hydrocarbons in a number of steps that eventually convert the hydrocarbon into CO2 and H2O. The overall reaction is shown below: CH4 (g) + 5 O2 (g) + 5 NO (g) CO2 (g) + H2O (g) + 5 NO2 (g) + 2 OH (g) Suppose that an atmospheric chemist combines 155 mL of CH4, 885 mL of O2, and 55.5 mL of NO all at STP in a 2.0 L flask. The flask is allowed to stand for several weeks at 275 K. if the reaction reaches 90% completion (90% of the limiting reactant is consumed):
Calculate the moles of CO2 and NO2 formed and their partial pressures, respectively? please show all work

I am looking for a formula where I can find the relative humidity (RH) of air after being compressed. I am given the RH, input and output temperature, and input and output pressure. It is assumed that the compressed air is hotter after compression, using constant volume ideal gas law. Any help appreciated.

Read the summaries and analyses of both sides about the Cape Wind project. If the decision was in your hands, would you approve the project? Why or why not? Do you believe this level of controversy is unique to Cape Wind, or is it a preview of the challenges future wind projects will face?

(1 Point) A sample of soils was taken by using the sand cone method. The sample was placed inside a sealed jar and the total weight jar + sample was 3.08 lbs. The empty jar had weighted 0.75 lbs. before collecting the sample. After collecting the sample, the cone and the calibrated sand bottle were placed on the plate. The sand being used was calibrated in advance and it was determined its relative density was 2.55. The density of water is 62.4 lbs./ft3. The sand was allowed to fill the excavation hole as well as the plate and cone assembly, after which the valve was closed. The calibrated sand bottle weighted 6.25 lbs. before and 3.79 lbs. after being used. During calibration at the lab, it was found that the weight of sand left inside the cone and plate assembly was 0.51 lbs. Using the “Sand Cone test Form.pdf” file provided as a template complete all the necessary calculation to estimate the volume of the excavated hole. Remember that the density of sand can be calculated by multiplying its relative density by the density of water. Please document all your calculations below the given table.

The isothermal reaction of A to B is a first order reaction in A. A 5,000 liter plug flow reactor is fed with A at concentration of 4 gmol/liter and volumetric flow of 800 L/min. At these conditions the conversion of A is 95%. We have two CSTRs that are 2000 and 7000 liters and can be place in series to replace the PFR.
a. Can the two CSTR’s in series provide 95% conversion in replacement of the PFR? Select a configuration for the two CSTRs and support your conclusion with calculations.
