  1. Reading Materials: Chapter 4 Describing Physical Quantities LECTURE 9 CHEM ENG 1007

  2. Objectives At the end of these lectures you should be able to: • Explain in your own words the meaning of gram-mole, lb-mole and kilogram-mole (Lecture 7) • Calculate two of the quantities mass (or mass flow rate), volume (or volumetric flow rate), and moles (or molars flow rate) from a knowledge of the third quantity for any species of known density and molecular weight. (Lecture 8) • Transform a material from one measure of concentration to another including mass/volume, moles/volume, ppm, ppb and molarity (Lecture 8) • Calculate the average molecular weight of the mixture • Convert the composition of a mixture from mass fraction (or mass percent) to mole fraction (or mole percent) and vice versa. CHEM ENG 1007

  3. §4.2.3 Mixture Concentration In the calculation of the mass fraction and mole fraction, the same units for mass and moles must be used in the numerator as in the denominator so that the calculated fraction is without units. Summary: CHEM ENG 1007

  4. Learning Check Two compounds, one with a high molecular weight and one with a low molecular weight, each comprise 50 mole% of the same mixture. Which has the greater mass fraction in the mixture Solution: Answer: the stream that has higher molecular weight will have greater mass fraction. CHEM ENG 1007

  5. Learning Check A solution of salt dissolved in water is diluted with additional water. With each of the following variables, indicate whether the dilution process will cause the value of the variable to increase, decrease, or stay the same. Support your answer Solution: CHEM ENG 1007

  6. Average/Mean Molecular Weight From mole fraction: From mass fraction: CHEM ENG 1007

  7. Illustration 7 • Calculate the average molecular weight of air • (1) From its approximate molar composition of 79% N2, 21% O2 • Solution: CHEM ENG 1007

  8. Illustration 7 • Calculate the average molecular weight of air • (2) From its approximate mass composition of 76.7 wt% N2, 23.3 wt% O2 • Solution: CHEM ENG 1007

  9. Illustration 7 (3) Assume we have 100 mol of air mixture, what is this amount in grams? From (1) molar composition of 79% N2, 21% O2 Solution: CHEM ENG 1007

  10. Illustration 7 (3) Assume we have 100 mol of air mixture, what is this amount in grams? From (1) molar composition of 79% N2, 21% O2 Solution: (alternative method) CHEM ENG 1007

  11. System Properties Quantities necessary to describe the state or condition of a system. Extensive properties: depend on the size of system • eg. weight, force, energy, flow rate Intensive properties: are independent of the mass or size of system, • eg. temperature, pressure, density, viscosity, concentration, mass fraction, mole fraction, etc. CHEM ENG 1007

  12. Learning Check A solution of NaOH in water flows in a stream, and the mass flow rate of the stream suddenly increased. For each of the following properties of the stream, indicate whether the increase of the flow rate will cause the property to increase, decrease, or remain the same each case, explain your answer. Solution: CHEM ENG 1007

  13. Learning Check A solution of NaOH in water flows in a stream, and the mass flow rate of the stream suddenly increased. For each of the following properties of the stream, indicate whether the increase of the flow rate will cause the property to increase, decrease, or remain the same each case, explain your answer. Solution: CHEM ENG 1007

  14. Example 4.5 • From the acid-neutralization problem, the volumetric flow rate of the HCl solution coming from our manufacturing process is 11,600 L/hr, and the average molarity of HCl in that stream is 0.014 M. • How many mol of HCl are in 88 m3 of the solution? • V = 88 m3; cHCl = 0.014 M = 0.014 mol/L; n = ? mol CHEM ENG 1007

  15. Example 4.5 b) How many mole of HCl are flowing from the process per minute when the volumetric flow rate of the solution is 11,600 L/hr? CHEM ENG 1007

  16. Example 4.5 • What is the mass fraction of HCl in the solution? • V and c were given; xHCl=? CHEM ENG 1007

The mass of the gas mixture in the cylinder is measured at 2.0 g. The mixture is at 25oC & 1 atm. Individual masses are given in the below table. CHEM ENG 1007

  24. §4.2.3 Conversion between mole fraction and mass fraction From the known mass fractions, calculate the mass of each species Using the molecular weights, convert the mass into moles for each species Assume a basis of 100 mass units Compute the desired moles fractions or percentages.

  25. §4.2.3 Conversion between mole fraction and mass fraction From the known mole fractions, calculate the number of moles of each species Using the molecular weights, convert the moles into mass for each species Assume a basis of 100 moles Compute the desired mass fractions or percentages. Conversion between mole fraction and mass fraction Note: When performing such conversions, the best way is to tabulate your data CHEM ENG 1007

  26. Example 4.6 Air has the following approximate mole%: N2: 78.03 mole%; O2: 20.99 mole%; Ar: 0.94 mole% Solution: Assume 100 mol of Air Convert from mole to mass CHEM ENG 1007

  27. Example 4.6 Hence, the total number of grams is mT = 2186 + 672 + 38 = 2896 g CHEM ENG 1007
