Question: A solution of B a ( N O 3 ) 2 from an evaporator contains 3 0 . 6 lbBa ( N O 3 )

A solution of Ba(NO3)2 from an evaporator contains 30.6lbBa(NO3)2100lbH2O and goes to a crystallizer where the solution is cooled and Ba(NO3) z crystallizes. On cooling, 10% of the original water present evaporates. For a feed solution of 250lb total, calculate the following:
a) Make a sketch of the process.
b) Give a complete basis.
c) Give the degree of freedom analysis.
d) The yield of crystals if the solution is cooled to 290K, where the solubility is 8.6lbBa(NO3)2100lb total water.
e) The yield if cooled instead to 283K, where the solubility is 7kgBa(NO3)2100kg total water.
