Question: A hydrochloric acid solution [ 8 -molar, SG 1.12 , C p = 2.76 J/(g C)] is produced by absorbing hydrogen chloride [HCl(g)] in water.
A hydrochloric acid solution [ 8 -molar, SG 1.12 , Cp= 2.76 J/(g C)] is produced by absorbing hydrogen chloride [HCl(g)] in water. Liquid water enters the absorber at 35.0 C and gaseous HCL is fed at 0.0 C and 790.0 torr absolute. Essentially all of the HCL fed to the column is absorbed. Take one liter of product solution as a basis of calculation.
A. Estimate the volume (liters) of HCL that must be fed to to the absorber
B. Estimate the heat (kJ) [absolute value] that must be transferred from the absorber if the product solution is to emerge at 40.0 C. Enter your answer in accordance to the question statement kJ (positive)
C. Estimate the final solution temperature if the absorber operates adiabatically (if it did not boil first) (Degrees Celcius)
