Problem 17HP

Modern extraction techniques can be based on dissolving material in supercritical fluids such as carbon dioxide. How high are the pressure and density of carbon dioxide when the pressure and temperature are around the critical point? Repeat for ethyl alcohol.

ANSWER:

Solution 17 HP:

Step 1 of 2:-

Here we have to find how high the pressure and density of carbon dioxide, when the temperature and pressure at the critical point.

Here we can use the table A-2, where the data are as follows.

The pressure at the critical point is, .

The temperature at the critical point is, .

And .

So, the density will be,

.

So, the density at the critical point will be and the pressure will be .
