FOOD ENGINEERING - ANSWER 23.2 : (a) The mass of dried material is constant throughout the drying process, or 100 kg x 0.2 = 20 kg. Mass of water = mass of dried material (% of water / % of dried material). Initial mass of water = 20 (80 / 20) = 80 kg. Final mass of water = 20 (10 / 90) = 2.222 kg. Mass of the water removed = Final mass - Initial mass = 80 - 2.222 = 77.778 kg. (b) Heat energy required to evaporate the water only = Mass of the water removed x Latent heat of vaporization = 77.778 kg x 2331 kJ / kg = 181300.518 kJ. (c) Minimum heat energy required to raise the temperature of the potatoes = Mass of potatoes of 80 % moisture x specific heat of potato x temperature changes = 100 kg x 3.43 kJ / (kg °C) x (71 - 24) °C = 16121 kJ. (d) Heat energy in steam = mass of steam x latent heat of steam = 250 kg x 2283 kJ / kg = 570750 kJ. (e) Efficiency of the dryer based heat input and output = (Ti - To) / (Ti - Ta) = (80 - 71) / (80 - 24) = 0.1607.

Question 77 - The molecular weights M in kg / mol of 3 different monomers a, b and c in a polymer are Ma = 14, Mb = 16 and Mc = 18, with their respective quantities in N units having the ratio of Na : Nb : Nc = 2 : 3 : 5. (a) Find the numerical average molecular weight of the polymer by using the formula (Ma Na + Mb Nb + Mc Nc) / (Na + Nb + Nc). (b) Find the weighted average molecular weight of the polymer by using the formula (Ma Na Ma + Mb Nb Mb + Mc Nc Mc) / (Ma Na + Mb Nb + Mc Nc). (c) Calculate the polydispersity Q by using the answer in (b) divided by answer in (a). (d) Find the volumetric average molecular weight of the polymer by using the formula (Ma Na Ma Ma + Mb Nb Mb Mb + Mc Nc Mc Mc) / (Ma Na Ma + Mb Nb Mb + Mc Nc Mc). (e) Estimate the polydispersity Q by using the answer in (d) divided by answer in (b).

Chemical Engineering Material Balance - Three hundred gallons of a mixture containing 75.0 wt % ethanol and 25 wt % water (mixture specific gravity = 0.877) and a quantity of a 40.0 wt % ethanol - 60 wt % water mixture (specific gravity = 0.952) are blended to produce a mixture containing 60.0 wt % ethanol. The specific gravity of a substance is the ratio of density of a substance compared to the density of water. The symbol of weight percent is wt %. (a) Estimate the specific gravity of the 60 % mixture by assuming that y = mx c where y is wt % ethanol, x is mixture specific gravity. Values for m and c are constants. (b) Determine the required volume of the 40 % mixture.

Question 107 - In N + 1 Rule in Quantum Chemistry, whenever a spin 1 / 2 nucleus is adjacent to N other nuclei, it is split into N + 1 distinct peaks. In 1 peak or singlet, there is only 1 magnitude. In 2 peaks or doublet, the ratio of magnitude of each peak is 1 : 1. In 3 peaks or triplet, the ratio of magnitude of each peak is 1 : 2 : 1. In 4 peaks or quartet, the ratio of magnitude of each peak is 1 : 3 : 3 : 1. In 5 peaks or quintet, the ratio of magnitude of each peak is 1 : 4 : 6 : 4 : 1. (a) By using binomial coefficients or Triangle of Pascal find the ratio of magnitude of each peak if 6 peaks exists. (b) How many adjacent nuclei are available in a spin 1 / 2 nucleus in such situation of 6 peaks?
