Q

Debye Huckel Theory

A

This theory was proposed by Peter debye and Eric huckel to explain the departure of electrolytic solution from ideality, because the electrolytic solution shows the deviation from the ideal behavior. Colligative properties of ideal solutions are directly proportional to the concentration of solute.

Q

Difference of agitation from blending/mixing

A

agitation refers to forcing a fluid by mechanical means to flow in a circulatory or other pattern inside a vessel. Mixing usually implies the taking of two or more separate phases, such as a fluid and a powdered solid or two fluids, and causing them to be randomly distributed through one another.

Gravity Decanter

A

A gravity decanter is a vessel or stage in which two liquids of different densities are allowed to separate by gravity.

The feed is sent to a gravity decanter where the n-butanol phase separates from the aqueous phase and rises to the top.

A gravity decanter is used for the continuous separation of two immiscible liquids of differing densities.

Q

(Coulson)
A packed tower is used for absorbing sulphur dioxide from air by means of a caustic
soda solution containing 20 kg/m3 NaOH. At an air flow of 2 kg/m2
s, corresponding to
a Reynolds number of 5160, the friction factor R/ρu2 is found to be 0.020. Calculate the mass transfer coefficient in kg SO2/s m2 (kN/m2
) under these conditions
if the tower is at atmospheric pressure. At the temperature of absorption, the diffusion
coefficient SO2 is 1.16 × 10−5 m2/s, the viscosity of the gas is 0.018 mN s/m2 and the
density of the gas stream is 1.154 kg/m3
.

(Coulson)
In an absorption tower, ammonia is absorbed from air at atmospheric pressure by acetic
acid. The flowrate of 2 kg/m2s in a test corresponds to a Reynolds number of 5100 and
hence a friction factor R/ρu2 of 0.020. At the temperature of absorption the viscosity of
the gas stream is 0.018 mN s/m2, the density is 1.154 kg/m3 and the diffusion coefficient
of ammonia in air is 1.96 × 10−5 m2/s. Determine the mass transfer coefficient through
the gas film in kg/m2s (kN/m2).

A certain toaster has a heating element made of Nichrome wire. When the toaster is first
connected to a 120 V source (and the wire is at a temperature of 20.0C), the initial current is

operating temperature, the current is 1.53A. Find the power delivered to the toaster when it is at
its operating temperature.
