Here's a specific problem for the student to solve:Consider the reaction A(g) + B(g) ↔ C(g) with a standard enthalpy change of reaction (ΔH°rxn) of -50 kJ/mol at 298 K. If the initial concentrations of A and B are both 1.0 M, what will be the equilibrium concentration of each gas at 298 K? The equilibrium constant (Kc) for the reaction at 298 K is 2.75 x 10^-2.

Design a distillation column that can effectively separate a mixture containing 50 wt% methanol and 50 wt% water. The column should produce a distillate with no more than 5 wt% methanol and a bottom product with no more than 2 wt% water. The feed rate is 1000 kg/h and the column must operate at atmospheric pressure. Assume that the feed is a saturated liquid and that the methanol-water mixture behaves as an ideal solution. Provide the design specifications for the column, including the number of trays or packing height, diameter, and other necessary specifications.

Here's a precise problem for a chemistry student to solve related to designing a heat exchanger for a specific process:A chemical plant produces a product with a flow rate of 500 liters per hour, and it needs to be cooled from its initial temperature of 120°C to its final temperature of 80°C before it can be packaged for shipment. The cooling medium that will be used is water, which is available at a flow rate of 400 liters per hour and an initial temperature of 20°C. Design a heat exchanger to cool the product and determine the required surface area of the heat exchanger if the overall heat transfer coefficient is 500 W/m2K.

Design a heat exchanger for a chemical plant which produces 1000 kg/hr of a chemical at a temperature of 350°C. The chemical needs to be cooled down to 50°C using water at an inlet temperature of 25°C. The cooling water flow rate should not exceed 5000 kg/hr. The overall heat transfer coefficient should be at least 500 W/m2K. Determine the surface area of the heat exchanger required for this process.

Design a heat exchanger for a chemical process that requires heating of 50 kg/hr of water from 25°C to 80°C using steam as the heating medium. The available steam is at a pressure of 1.5 MPa and a temperature of 300°C. The overall heat transfer coefficient between the water and the steam is 600 W/m2K. The heat exchanger should be designed to accommodate a temperature drop of 5°C for both the water and the steam. Determine the required surface area of the heat exchanger and the mass flow rate of steam required to meet the process requirements.
