Methyl alcohol and water are brought into contact in such a way
that the two components form a layer 1.00 cm thick on top of a 3cm
deep layer of water. Both components(water and methyl alcohol) are
mutually diffusing into each other at 270C, there is no
mixing of water and methyl alcohol and they are fully miscible.
Calculate the following:
(1) The rate of diffusion of methyl alcohol into water, include a rough diagram indicating all given variables.
(2) The rate of diffusion of water into methyl alcohol

The compression ratio is 10 in the air standard Otto cycle. Pressure at the beginning of the compression stroke is 1XY kPa and the temperature is 15 ºC. The heat transfer to the air for each cycle is 18XY kJ / kg air. Draw the T-s and P-v diagrams. (x=9 y=8).
Note: Accept that specific temperatures do not change with temperature. Take k = 1.4 and Cp = 1.0031 kJ / kg-K.
a)
For question 1, we draw the temperature and pressure values at the end of each condition in the cycle by drawing a table.
b)
Write the thermal efficiency for Question 1.
c)
For Question 1, write down the mean effective pressure. (Unit kPa)
d)
Calculate the efficiency of the Carnot machine operating between the maximum and minimum temperatures in Question 1.

During their vacation, the Baldwin Family hired contractors to repaint their house. One warm afternoon, fire broke out on one side of the house and the house burned to the ground. The painters had left linseed oil soaked rags out near the house, which they had been using to finish the wood deck. An arson investigator was sent out to investigate whether the fire could have been deliberately set. How could the lab technician determine whether the fire was accidental (or not)? Clearly describe what kinds of samples would need to be collected and what kind of chromatographic analysis would need to be 5 performed. Discuss the type of columns, standards and detectors you would use and what type(s) of compounds the analyst would seek to analyze given the information above. Hint: Do not ignore the linseed oil soaked rags.

b) Ethane gas at 1 bar and 25 oC is compressed adiabatically to 55 bar in a steady-state flow process for which W = 10 J mol-1. Assume ethane is ideal gas at its initial state and the residual enthalpy of the gas at its final state is - 3270 J/mol, and its heat capacity is constant (CP = 4.5 R), the temperature of ethane at the final state, i.e., after compression, is
i. 403.3 oC; ii. 403.3 K; iii. 130.1 oC; iv. 130.1 K v. Other
c) Air enters the opening of a jet engine of an airplane flying at Mach 2.2. We want to convert the kinetic energy of the incoming airflow to pressure before the air is introduced to the entrance of a compressor, which is to compress the air stream to a pressure that is slightly higher than that in the combustion chamber. To increase the efficiency of such a conversion of energy, we should design the engine entrance channel as a diffuser so that
i) dP/dx > 0 ii) du/dx < 0; iii) dA/dx < 0; iv) I, ii, and iii ; v) None
