Marie and James are bubbling dry pure nitrogen (N2) through a tank of liquid water (H2O) containing ethane (C2H6). The vapor stream enters at 25oC, and 14000 mmHg. The tank operates at steady state, and the liquid flow rate enters at 15000 mol/min with a mole fraction of water of 0.999995. The separation of ethane is isothermal and isobaric, and 91% of the ethane is separated into the exiting vapor. Henry's law applies for ethane entering in the liquid and exiting in the vapor. Determine the following three unknowns. 1. Mole fraction of exiting ethane in the vapor phase = Ex: 0.021
2. Flow rate of ethane exiting in the liquid phase = Ex: 15 mol/day
3. Flow rate of entering nitrogen = Ex: 4.3 mol/min

Apump is used to circulate hot water in a home heating system. water enters the well-insulated pump operating at steady state at a rate of 0.42 gal/min. the inlet pressure and temperature are 14.7 lbf/in.2, and 180°f, respectively; at the exit the pressure is 60 lbf/in.2 the pump requires 1/15 hp of power input. water can be modeled as an incompressible substance with constant density of 60.58 lb/ft3 and constant specific heat of 1 btu/lb or. neglecting kinetic and potential energy effects, determine the temperature change, in °r, as the water flows through the pump.
