At the end of basic oxygen heat, the FeO content of the slag is approximately 20% which corresponds to a mole fraction of 0.165. Assuming that the activity coefficient of FeO in the slag is unity and that the slag and finished steel are in equilibrium at 1600oC, estimate the carbon content of the metal bath. Assume dilute solution and total pressure of 1 atm.

Calculate the emissions reduction if a natural gas power plant
is converted to biogas. 81 % of the biogas emissions are absorbed
by regrowing the source material.
Fuel properties:
• methane content of Natural gas: 72 %
• calorific value of methane: 55 GJ/t
• ethane content of Natural gas: 20 %
• calorific value of ethane: 51 GJ/t
• remainder of Natural gas is CO2
• methane content of biogas: 54 %
• remainder of biogas is CO2
Calculate the percentage savings (e.g., if natural gas emitted 200
units of CO2 and the resulted in a net emission of 120 units, then
the percentage savings would be (200-120)/200 = 40%).
Give the answer in % rounded to the nearest ±1%

Semiconductor microchip processing often involves with chemical vapor deposition (CVD). In this process a stream of Silane gas (SiH4) enters a reactor chamber, reacts with oxygen (O2) which comes to the chamber from another stream; this reaction results in production of silicon dioxide (SiO2) and hydrogen gas (H2). Silicon dioxide leaves the chamber in the form of solid thin film, but the rest of materials leave the chamber in gas phase. The chamber has rigid non insulated walls and it is fixed to the floor of the cleanroom.
In a cleanroom CVD reactor, we use the following procedure to fabricate thin films; a stream of Silane gas (SiH4) at 1.00 atm, 17.0 °C and volumetric flow rate of 12.57 gal/min enters the reactor. 25 % excess oxygen enters the system from another stream at 27.0 °C, 1.00 atm. Also, argon gas (Ar is an inert gas) is entering the system at 27.0 °C, 1.00 atm and its molar flow rate ratio to Silane’s molar flow rate is (5:1). If the temperature of the thin film is 850 °C, and all the gases that are leaving the chamber has the temperature of 397 °C. How much heat is transferred to/from our reactor in KW?
Reaction: SiH4 (g) + O2 (g) ---> SiO2 (g) + 2H2 (g)
Material | Heat of formation at 25°C, 1atm (KJ/mol) | Heat capacity (J/mol*K) | Boiling Temperature (°C) |
---|---|---|---|
SiH4 | 34.31 | 42.8 | -112 |
I know that the heat transfered from/to the reaction is equal to the change in enthalpy (Q= ΔH). The formula I would be using is ΔH= m ∫ Cp ΔT for each material in the equation. I just really need help on how to get the moles of each component (SiH4, O2, SiO2, H2, Ar) going in the reaction and coming out.

Steam enters a turbine at a velocity of 200 m/s. The inlet conditions of the steam are at 4000 kPA and 500°C. The diameter of the inlet pipe is 50 mm. The outlet conditions of the steam are 80 kPa and a quality of 1.0. The diameter of the outlet pipe is 250 mm. Determine the turbine power output in kJ/s assuming the kinetic energy change and potential energy change are both negligible. Calculate the change in kinetic energy to show it is indeed negligible.
