LINKED PROBLEMS 1 – 3:
Steam at 200 psia and 600oF enters a turbine through a 3 – in diameter pipe with a velocity of 10 ft/s. The
exhaust from the turbine is carried through a 10 – inch diameter pipe and is at 5 psia and 200oF. (2.33)
1. What is the change in enthalpy of the process?
A. 1.3 x 1012 molecules B. 1.5 x 1012 molecules
C. 1.7 x 1012 molecules D. 1.9 x 1012 molecules
LINKED PROBLEMS:
Carbon dioxide gas enters a water – cooled compressor at conditions P1 = 15 psia and T1 = 50oF, and is
discharged at conditions P2 =520 psia and T2 = 200oF. The entering CO2 flows through a 4 – in diameter
pipe with a velocity of 20 ft/s and is discharged through a 1 – in diameter pipe. The shaft work supplied to
the compressor is 5,360 BTU/mol. (2-34)
4. Glycolysis produces how many ATP molecules?
A. 2 B. 4
C. 6 D. 8
6. A sample of wastewater has an ultimate BOD of 290 ppm and a 5-day BOD of 235 ppm. Calculate the
15-day BOD of the sample.
A. 258 ppm B. 268 ppm
C. 278 ppm D. 288 ppm
7. Ethylene enters a turbine at 10 bar and 450 K, and exhaust at 1 atm and 325K. For a mass flow rate of
4.5 kg/s, determine the cost C of the turbine. Cost = 15200(P/kW)0.573. (State any assumptions you
make.)

9. A 20 molal solution of sodium sulfate in ethyl alcohol has a density of 1.14 g/mL. What is the molarity of
the solution?

C. 6.9 M D. 7.9 M
10. Bone dry air is allowed to flow into a 750 mL water-filled saturator in order to increase its moisture
content. If the saturator is operating at equilibrium conditions of 50 °C and 1 atm, determine the mole
ratio of water to dry air in the exit air stream.
A. 0.14 B. 0.19
C. 0.24 D. 0.29
