What are the conditions for reaction between Ethylene oxide and water in a plug flow reactor or in a Continuous Stirred Tank Reactor?
The Feed conditons entering are at 25 deg c with 101.3 kpa the reactor is a cstr operating at 65deg c the product if ethylene glycol!!!!!!
How to convert Ethylene glycol solution weight percent to volume percent?
Assume that you have a 25wt% solution of EG. That means you have 25 kg for every 100 kg of solution. Assuming that the EG is dissolved in water means that the solution would contain 25 kg of EG and 75 kg of water. To find the volume % you need to convert each component to a volume by using their densities. The density of water is 1000 kg/m3 and EG is 1113 kg/m3. Using this data we can figure out the volume of each component of solution. For water: 75 kg / (1000 kg/m3) = 0.075 m3 For EG: 25 kg/(1113 kg/m3) = 0.0225 m3 %Vol = 0.0225 m3 / (0.0225 + 0.075 m3) = 0.231 or 23.1% vol
Is a radiator a insulator?
The purpose of a radiator is to transfer heat as quickly as possible. It is pretty much the opposite of an insulator.
What elements make up a plastic bag?
They are made from two ingredients, petroleum and natural gas, which are then separated and converted into polymers. Polymers are filled with large molecules called monomers. Monomers are used in a variety of ways to make ethylene. When ethylene is processed it forms a molecular chains that create polyethylene.
Should steam radiator valves always be open?
Steam radiator valves should always be fully open, or fully closed. Steam enters the radiator from the boiler, and fills the radiator. The air vent shuts, having sensed moisture inside the radiator. The steam then cools, condenses to water, and drains from the radiator. If you leave a valve partially open, then the steam enters easily, because of the pressure. But, the water has a difficult time draining, so the radiator can collect it, and steals it from the furnace, which needs it for resupply.
What does ethylene glycol do to the solution in a vehicles radiator?
Ethylene glycol mixed up to 50% with water, lowers the freezing point of the mixture, while remaining an excellent heat transfer medium. It protects the engine from either freezing or from overheating.
What does ethylene glycol do to the solution?
Raises the boiling point and lowers the freezing point.
How do you make solution of melamine?
Melamine is soluble in ethylene glycol an water at high temperature.
If ethylene glycol has a density of 0.958 which car would be better prepared for cold weather car A with a radiator fluid density of 0.976 or car B with a radiator density of 0.989?
0.976
Why antifreeze mixing with transmission fluid?
You have a failed radiator. Most vehicles have a trans cooler on the side of the radiator.
Where is the radiator drain plug for 2006 Chevrolet Colorado?
The cooling system on these vehicles is drained by detaching the lower radiator hose from the radiator. The radiator doesn't have a drain plug.
How do you convert Ethan to ethylene?
Pyrolysis to convert the ethane to ethene. The add Alkaline Pottasium permanganate solution.
Do you check the radiator liquid when the cars on?
NO! That would be dangerous. Cars' coolant systems are pressurized, so if you open the radiator cap while the engine is running, it will spray HOT radiator fluid (water mixed with ethylene glycol, usually) all over you, and sometimes drain the radiator of coolant.
What is car radiator made out of?
Older vehicles had copper and steel radiators, newer vehicles are made of aluminum and plastic.
Why is ethylene glycol added to water in radiator during summer?
It acts as a coolant and prevent the car from overheating during summers. Hope this Helps!!
What is the freezing point of a solution made by dissolving 352 g of ethylene glycol in 648 g of water?
-16.3C
Is antifreeze a colloid?
Basic antifreeze is a solution of ethylene glycol in water. This is not collodial, it's a true solution. However, if other additives are present, it's possible for it to be a colloid.
