On a recent visit to the Plowstein Brain clinic we found that just 3 resources are required: an administrator, Mr. Red; a CA, Nurse White; and a Physician, Dr. Blue. From direct observation we find that each patient spends 0.3 hours with Administrator Red, 0.4 hours with Nurse White, and 0.15 hours with Dr. Blue. We have capacity cost rates of $45/hr for Red, $65/hr for White, and $300/hr for Blue. The clinic reports charges for each visit of $400 and the reimbursement for the visit is $200. If profit is predicted based on the capacity cost rates what is the profit for each visit?

A rigid tank contains 10 kg of carbon monoxide, and 40 kg of an unknown gas. When it is at 300K, the mixture heat capacity is measured as cp = 0.625 kJ/kg·K. (a) What is the identify of the unknown gas? It is one of those listed on Table A-2a. (b) What is the mole fraction of the unknown gas? (c) What is the mixture gas constant Rm in units of kJ/kg·K? (d) Using Amagat’s law and the Compressibility* equation of state, find the the volume of the tank at 200K and 10 MPa in m3. (e) Using Dalton’s law and the Compressibility* equation of state, find the the volume of the tank at 200K and 10 MPa in m3. * Enter your answer to part (e) in the box below
