    Purify Argon gas by feeding it through heated titanium chips

    alright I will look into that...do you know why reactions are less favorable when you increase the temperature? Because it seems like at higher temperatures the kinetics are more favorable for reactions to occur.

    Purify Argon gas by feeding it through heated titanium chips

    If a titanium heat treatment process is to be performed in argon that has been passed over heated Ti chips prior to entering the furnace, should the gettering Ti (the ones used for purifying the argon) be at a higher or lower temperature that the parts being heat treated? I know that a higher...

    How to Calculate Entropy Difference Between Water and Ice?

    Homework Statement Compute the entropy difference between 12 kg of water at 40°C and 12kg of ice at -10°C. Cp,water=4.184 J/g.K Cp,ice=2.1 J/g.K Heat of melting of ice=336 kJ/kg Standard entropy of water at 298K = 69.9 J/K.mol Homework Equations S=the integral of cp/TdT The...

    How to derive plane strain bulk modulus?

    This is a homework problem and I thought about putting it in the homework section bu since its very materials science specific I decided to put it here: For a transversely isotropic material, the “plane strain bulk modulus”, K23, is an engineering constant that is defined by the stress...
