Gaseous ammonia and 50 wt% aqueous nitric acid solution are fed to a reactor in stoichiometric proportions where they react completely to form aqueous ammonium nitrate: nh3 + hno3 > nh4no3 the aqueous ammonium nitrate solution leaving the reactor is mixed with a recycle stream coming from a crystalliser. the mixed stream passes through an evaporator where some of the water is removed. the concentrated solution leaving the evaporator is saturated at 70°c and passes through a crystalliser and filter unit which produce anhydrous nh4no3 crystals at 20°c. the saturated nh4no3 solution at 20°c leaving the crystalliser/filter is recycled to be mixed with reactor product stream. the wet filter cake, containing 90 wt% nh4no3 crystals and the remaining saturated nh4no3 solution at 20°c is sent to a dryer where all of water is removed. for a production rate of 100.0 ton/day of anhydrous ammonium nitrate crystals, find - (a) the mass flow rate of the recycle stream (kg/h). (b) mass flow rate of the water evaporated in the evaporator and the dryer (kg/h). (c) if the water leaving the evaporator is condensed to be mixed with a concentrated nitric acid solution to make the feed solution of 50 wt% nitric acid what would be the mass composition of the concentrated nitric acid solution. comment on why it is important to recycle the water leaving the evaporator. data: temperature (°c) solubility of nh4no3 in water (g nh4no3/100 g water) 134.2 235.1 70

Modern pennies are composed of zinc coated with copper. a student determines the mass of a penny to be 2.482 g and then makes several scratches in the copper coaling (to expose the underlying zinc). the student puts the scratched penny in hydrochloric acid, where the following reaction occurs between the zinc and the hcl (the copper remains undissolved): zn(s) + 2 hcl(aq) → h2(g) + zncl(aq)the student collects the hydrogen produced over water at 25 °c. the collected gas occupies a volume of 0.899 l at a total pressure of 79 j mmhg. calculate the percent zinc (by mass) in the penny. (assume that all the zn in the penny dissolves.)
