Question: A process fluid that contains 7 5 mol % - pentane and 2 5 mol % hydrogen enters a cooling unit at 1 1 0

A process fluid that contains 75mol%-pentane and 25 mol% hydrogen enters a cooling unit at 110C and 1atm. The liquid stream emerges from the cooling unit contains only liquid n-pentane while the vapor stream leaves with 8mol%n-pentane. Both output streams leave the unit at 20C and 3.5 bar.
a) Draw the flow chart of the process showing all the streams involved. Taking the basis of 100mols, calculate the amount of heat that should be removed to accomplish the cooling.
Ans: -2912.85kJs(15 marks)
