CHE 2000 - Mass and Energy Balances I


Applications of chemistry, physics, and mathematics to the solution of mass and energy balances. Single and multiple unit systems; reactions, recycle, and bypass; single and multiphase systems; phase change operations; First Law of Thermodynamics; heats of reaction, formation, and combustion.

Requisites: CHEM 1510
Credit Hours: 3
Repeat/Retake Information: May be retaken two times excluding withdrawals, but only last course taken counts.
Lecture/Lab Hours: 3.0 lecture
Grades: Eligible Grades: A-F,WP,WF,WN,FN,AU,I
Learning Outcomes:
  • Students will be able to complete a multi-step material balance analysis for open systems, including non-reactive and reactive systems, single or multiple components, vapor-liquid equilibrium and phase change.
  • Students will be able to convert among mass flow rate, molar flow rate, and volumetric flow rate; and between mass and mole fraction.
  • Students will be able to define the terms steady-state, accumulation, open and closed system, and to differentiate between steady state and equilibrium.
  • Students will be able to create a block-flow diagram of a chemical process from a description, or describe a chemical process given a block-flow diagram.
  • Students will be able to use the Ideal Gas Law appropriately to calculate gas properties.
  • Students will be able to write mathematical expressions based on physical properties, simple equilibrium relationships and equations of state to describe relationships among process variables.
  • Students will be able to write mathematical expressions to describe process specifications.
