    QUESTION 1

    a) In biological systems, enzym es are used to accelerate the rates of certain biological

    reactions. Glucoamylase is an enzyme that aids in the conversion of starch to

    glucose (a sugar that cells use for energy). Experiments show that 1 ug-mol of

    glucoamylase in a 4% starch solution results in a production rate of glucose of

    0.6 ug-mol/mLmin. Determine the production rate of glucose for this system in the

    units of lb-m ol/ft

    3

    day.

    (5 marks)

    b) A seed crystal of diameter D (mm) is placed in a solution of dissolved salt and new

    crystals are observed to nucleate (form) at a constant rate of r (crystals/min).

    Experiments with seed crystals of different sizes show that the rate of nucleation, r,

    varies with the seed crystal diameter, D, as

    r (crystals/min) = 200D - 10D

    2

    where D is in mm.

    i) From the above e quation, determine the units of the constants.

    (3 marks)

    ii) Calculate the crystals nucleation rate in crystals/s corresponding to a crystal

    diameter of 0.05 in.

    (5 marks)

    iii) Derive a form ula for r' (crystals/s) in term s of D' (in.). Verify the formu la using

    the result of part (ii).

    (7 marks)

    QUESTION 2

    Fresh orange juice contains 12.0 wt% solid and the balance water, and concentrated orange

    juice contains 42.0 wt%

    solid.

    Initially a single evaporation process was used for the

    concentration, but volatile constituents of the juice escaped with the water, leaving the

    concentrate with a flat tastes. The current process overcomes this problem by bypassing the

    evaporator with a fraction of the fresh juice. The juice that enters the evaporator is

    concentrated to 58 wt% solid and the evaporator product stream is mixed with the bypassed

    fresh juice to achieve the de sired final concentration.

    a) Draw and label a flowchart of the process.

    QUESTION 4

    a) The term gas and vapour are often used interchangeably. Briefly explain the term

    gas and vapour.

    (5 marks)

    b) A tank in a room at 19C is initially open to the atmosphere on a day when the

    barometric pressure is 1 02 kPa. A block of dry ice (solid C 0

    2

    ) with a mass of 15.7 kg

    is dropped into the tank, which is then sealed. The reading on the tank pressure

    gauge initially rises very quickly, then m uch m ore slowly, eventually reaching a value

    of 3.27 M Pa. Assumel

    fina

    is 19C.

    i) Calculate the initial mol of air in the tank. Neglect the volume occu pied by C0

    2

    in

    the solid state, and assume that a negligible amount of C0

    2

    escapes prior to the

    sealing of the tank.

    (5 marks)

    ii) Calculate the final density (g/L) of the gas in the tank.

    (5 marks)

    iii) Explain what is happe ning in the tank during the initial rapid pressure increase

    and during the later slow pressure increase.

    QUESTION 5

    a) The total energy of a system has three com ponen ts. Describe these three

    components.

    (6 marks)

    b) A closed system in a process means that no mass is transferred across its

    boundaries while the process is taking place. Describe the two ways that energy may

    be transferred b etween such a system and its surroundings.

    c) A 10 m

    3

    tanks contains steam at 275C and 15.0 bar. The tank and its contents are

    cooled until the pressure drops to 1.2 bar. Some of the steam condenses in the

    process.

    i) Find the final temperatu re of the tank content.

    (2 marks)

    ii) Calculate the amou nt of steam condensed (kg).

    (3 marks)

    iii) Calculate the amount of heat transferred from the tank.
