A gas mixture is found to contain two diatomic A and B species for which the partial pressures of both are 0.05065 MPa (0.5 atm). This mixture is to be enriched in the partial pressure of the A species by passing both gases through a thin sheet of some metal at an elevated temperature. The resulting enriched mixture is to have a partial pressure of 0.02026 MPa (0.2 atm) for gas A, and 0.01013 MPa (0.1 atm) for gas B. The concentrations of A and B (CA and CB, in mol/m3) are functions of gas partial pressures (pA2 and pB2, in MPa) and absolute temperature according to the following expressions:

CA= 200 √ pA2 exp(- 250KJ. mol^-1/ RT )
CB= 1.0 x 10^3 √ pB2 exp(- 30.0KJ. mol^-1 /RT)

Furthermore, the diffusion coefficients for the diffusion of these gases in the metal are functions of the absolute temperature as follows:

DA(m^2/s)= 4.0 x 10^-7 exp(- 15 KJ. mol^-1/RT)
DB=(m^2/s)= 2.5 x 10^-6 exp(- 24KJ. mol^-1/RT)

Required:
Is it possible to purify the A gas in this manner? If so, specify a temperature at which the process may be carried out, and also the thickness of metal sheet that would be required. If this procedure is not possible, then state the reason(s) why.

Which of the following statements is correct? a. two firms with identical sales and operating costs but with different amounts of debt and tax rates will have different operating incomes by definition. b. free cash flow (fcf) is, essentially, the cash flow that is available for interest and dividends after the company has made the investments in current and fixed assets that are necessary to sustain ongoing operations. c. retained earnings as reported on the balance sheet represent cash and, therefore, are available to distribute to stockholders as dividends or any other required cash payments to creditors and suppliers. d. if a firm is reporting its income in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, then its net income as reported on the income statement should be equal to its free cash flow. e. after-tax operating income is calculated as ebit(1 - t) + depreciation.
