Dry air is bubbled through 25 litres of water at a rate of 15 litres (STP)/min. The air leaving the liquid is saturated with water at 25 degrees celcius and 1.5 atm. How long it will take for all of the water to vaporize.
p = Pdry air + PH2O
Pdry air = p-PH2O
= 1.5-0.03127 = 1.468atm
P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2
V2 = P1V1T2/P2T1
= 15*1*298/1.468*273 = 11.1L/min
PV = nRT
n = PV/RT
= 0.03127*11.1/0.0821*298 = 0.01418 moles/min
mass of water = volume * density = 25000*1 = 25000g
no of moles of water = 25000/18 = 1388.88 moles
1388mole* min/0.01419mole = 97815 min >>>> answer
