Agas stream contains 18.0 mole% hexane and the remainder nitrogen. the stream flows to a condenser, where its temperature is reduced and some of the hexane is liquefied. the hexane mole fraction in the gas stream leaving the condenser is 0.0500. liquid hexane condensate is recovered at a rate of 1.50 l/min. n2 c6h14(v) (5.00 mole%) n2 c6h14(v) (18.0 mole%) liquid condensate 1.50 l c6h14 (l)/min condenser (a) what is the flow rate of the gas stream leaving the condenser in mol/min? (hint: first calculate the molar flow rate of the condensate and note that the rates at which c6h14 and n2 enter the unit must equal the total rates at which they leave in the two exit streams.) (b) what percentage of the hexane entering the condenser is recovered as a liquid? (c) suggest a change you could make in the process operating conditions to increase the percentage recovery of hexane. what would be the downside?

Tom is having a problem with his washing machine. he notices that the machine vibrates violently at a frequency of 1500 rpm due to an unknown rotating unbalance. the machine is mounted on 4 springs each having a stiffness of 10 kn/m. tom wishes to add an undamped vibration absorber attached by a spring under the machine the machine working frequency ranges between 800 rpm to 2000 rpm and its total mass while loaded is assumed to be 80 kg a) what should be the mass of the absorber added to the machine so that the natural frequency falls outside the working range? b) after a first trial of an absorber using a mass of 35 kg, the amplitude of the oscillation was found to be 10 cm. what is the value of the rotating unbalance? c) using me-3.5 kg. m, find the optimal absorber (by minimizing its mass). what would be the amplitude of the oscillation of the absorber?
