Assignment 01-Introduction and equations of state
1. A tank contains 2,3-dimethyl-butane gas (Mw = 86.18 Kg/Kmol) at 600 K and 5.65 MPa.
The gas has a critical temperature of 500 K, a critical pressure of 31 atm and an
acentricity () of 0.247. Determine the followings:
a. Calculate the molar volume that the gas would occupy by using:
i. The ideal gas law?
ii. The generalized compressibility chart?
iii. The Pitzer-Curl Tables?
iv. The Peng Robinson equation of state?
b. Using the van der Waals equation, estimate the pressure (kPa) that 40.6 kg of the
gas would exert in a volume of 6 m3 at 630 K?

2. N-octane (MW =114 kg/kmol) has a critical temperature of 568.8 K, a critical pressure of
24.5 atm, and an acentricity () of 0.394. N-butane (MW = 58.12 kg/kmol) has a critical
temperature of 425.2 K, a critical pressure of 37.5 atm, and an acentricity () of 0.1995.
Calculate the molar volume (m3/kmol) of a mixture of 30% n-octane and 70% n-butane
(molar) held at 370oC and 6.128 MPa by using the followings:
a. Ideal gas law?
b. Generalized compressibility chart?
c. Pitzer-Curl Tables?
d. van der Waals equation of state
e. Peng-Robinson equation of state

3. Calculate the volume of 100 kg CO2 (MW = 44 g/mol,  = 0.225) at 4 MPa and 50 oC
using the followings:
a. Ideal gas law?
b. Generalized compressibility chart?
c. Pitzer-Curl Tables?
d. van der Waals equation of state?
e. Peng-Robinson equation of state?

4. A storage tank contains a gas mixture with compositions listed in the table below. The
tank held at a pressure of 10.19 MPa and a temperature of 271 K. Calculate:
a. The molar volume (m3/kmol) and the density (kg/m3) of the mixture using the
Kay’s rule and the Katz correlation?
b. The molar volume (m3/kmol) and the density (kg/m3) of the mixture using the
approach of Wichert and Aziz to adjust for CO2 and H2S?
c. If the gas flows to a processing facility at a rate of 2800 x 103Sm3/d, what is the
mass flow of the gas in kg/s?
d. Using the result from part b, and the flow rate from part c, what is the actual
volumetric flow rate of the gas at the plant in m3/s?
e. Determine the standard gas flow rate in MMSCFD if the standard conditions are
60 oF and 14.69 psia?
