w/o chem reaxn Flashcards
density
m/V
mass
n/MW
molar flowrate
n/t
density of water @ 4C (all units)
1 g/mL or kg/L, 1000 kg/m3, 62.4 lb/ft3
1 MT (S.I) =
1000 kg
1 ton(English) =
2000 lb
Molarity =
mol solute/ L soln
(mol/L)
Mass fraction=
mass solute/ mass solution
unit op that concentrates non volatile solute w non volatile solvent
Evaporation
Evaporation: OMB =
F=V+P+C
Solve ____ balance first for evap questions
solute
conc of solute will __crease in P during Evap, due to the removal of ___ and precipitation of ____
decrease, H2O,solute
component present in one input/output stream
Tie component
Max amnt of solute that can be dissolved in a given solvent
Solubility
If soln is supersaturated, x’s solute will?
precipitate
Mother liquor is always ___
saturated
Crystallization OMb=
F=V+L+C
Xc (conc of solute in C) is always 1.0 unless?
hydrate is present
formula for Xc if hydrate is present
Xc=MW solute/MW solute+hydrate
SHORTCUT: For probs with given T and solubility table
solubility=Solubility @ Tmax (1-%rec)
distillation with 2 feeds?; common F2?
Azeotropic; Benzene
Commonly used as solvent for leaching and why
Hexane (C6H14); since oil has higher solubility & hexane is cheap
Overhead Product
Distillate
Residue Product
Bottoms
