a) 316 stainless steel

b) 316 stainless steel

c) Carbon steel

d) stainless steel 316

e) stainless steel 316

f ) Carbon steel

Explanation:

A) A 10,000 M' storage tank for Toluene

The best material for building this tank is 316 stainless steel this is because it is relatively cheaper than other materials such as Hest Alloy C while still maintaining the required tensile strength needed to build the storage tank for Toluene

B) A 5.0 m' tank for storing a 30% w/w aqueous solution of sodium chloride

The suitable material for building this tank is 316 stainless steel as it is cheaper than Titanium and Hest Alloy C and it is compatible with sodium chloride

C) A 2 m diameter, 20 m high distillation column, distilling acrylonitrile

The best material for constructing this column is Carbon steel and this is because it has a very high compressive strength which is approximately . 1320 MPa

D) A 100 m storage tank for strong nitric acid.

The best material is stainless steel 316 and this is due to its high tensile strength

E) 316 stainless steel

F) Carbon steel is suitable for building this absorption column because it has a very high compressive strength which is approximately . 1320 MPa

A2-m rigid tank initially contains saturated water vapor at 100 kpa. the tank is connected to a supply line through a valve. steam is flowing in the supply line at 600 kpa and 300 c. the valve is opened, and steam is allowed to enter the tank until the pressure in the tank reaches the line pressure, at which point the valve is closed. a thermometer placed in the tank indicates that the temperature at the final state is 200°c. determine (a) the mass of steam that has entered the tank (b) the amount of heat transfer.

Liquid flows at steady state at a rate of 2 lb/'s through a pump, which operates to raise the elevation of the liquid 100 ft from control volume inlet to exit. the liquid specific enthalpy at the inlet is 40.09 btu/lb and at the exit is 40.94 btub. the pump requires 3 btu/s of power to operate. if kinetic energy effects are negligible and gravitational acceleration is 32.174 tt/s, the heat transfer rate associated with this steady state process is most closely 1)-2,02 btu/s from the liquid to the surroundings 2)-3.98 btu/s from the surroundings to the liquid. 3)-4.96 btu/s from the surroundings to the liquid. 4)-1.04 btu/s from the liquid to the surroundings.
