Molar Enthalpy of Feed - (Measured in Joule per Mole) - Molar Enthalpy of Feed refers to the enthalpy content per mole of a substance in a feed stream when the substance is at a particular temperature.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Molar Latent Heat of Vapor: 390.785 Joule per Mole --> 390.785 Joule per Mole No Conversion Required
Molar Enthalpy of Feed at Boiling Point: 456.321 Joule per Mole --> 456.321 Joule per Mole No Conversion Required
Molar Enthalpy of Feed: 321.456 Joule per Mole --> 321.456 Joule per Mole No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

q = ((λ+H_fs-H_f))/(λ) --> ((390.785+456.321-321.456))/(390.785)

Evaluating ... ...

q = 1.34511304169812

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

1.34511304169812 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

1.34511304169812 ≈ 1.345113 <-- Feed Quality
