Unit 2 Linear simultaneous algebraic equation 1.

The gaseous mixtures with the following composition expressed in mole% are to be blended. Gas I II III CH4 25 35 55 C2H4 35 20 40 C3H8 40 45 5 -the three gas mixture are to be blended in such a proportion that the final mixture should have 40% CH4,35% C2H6 and 25%C3H8(on mole basis ) calculate the proportion in which they should be mixed. 2. A classical example of this use of technique is in the analysis of CSTR connected in series with liquid phase irreversible reaction A---B Takes place in a series of 4 CSTR as shown in fig below the rate of reaction is given by Ra=kca and k=3*10^5exp(-4200/T). K is in hr^-1 &T is in K the temperature and volume of each reactor are given as follows: Reactor no Temp 1 35 2 45 3 70 4 60 Determine the concentration of species in each reactor the volumetric flow rate of streams are given as follows. Stream no 1 7 9 11 Volume(v) 800 1000 1200 900 contain 1.5 mol/l of A

Volumetric flow rate L/hr 500 200 50 100
