You are managing a city that needs to upgrade its disinfection basin at your 40 MGD surface water drinking water treatment plant. You would like to use chlorine (Cl2) as your disinfectant and you need to achieve a 4-log removal of E. coli. You are deciding between a traditional 750,000 gallon PFR contact basin (serpentine flow) and a newer system which contains three 150,000 gallon CSTRs in series, each receiving an equal injection of Cl2. Your final decision is going to be based on which system requires the least amount of Cl2 to achieve a 4-log removal of E. coli.

Required:
What is the amount of Cl2 required to operate each system (please answer in units of kg Cl/day)?

Answers

Answer 1

Solution :

According to Chick's law

[tex]$\frac{N_t}{N_0}=e^{-k'C^n t}$[/tex]

where, t = contact time

            c = concentration of disinfectant

            k' = lethality coefficient = 4.71

            n = dilution coefficient = 1

            4 log removal = % removal = 99.99

[tex]$\frac{N_t}{N_0}=\frac{\text{bacteria remaining}}{\text{bacteria initailly present}}$[/tex]

      = 1 - R

      = 1 - 0.9999

Now for plug flow reactor contact time,

[tex]$\tau =\frac{V}{Q} =\frac{75000}{40 \times 10^6}$[/tex]

          = 0.01875 days

          = 27 minutes

For CSTR, [tex]$\tau =\frac{V}{Q} =\frac{150000}{40 \times 10^6}$[/tex]

                             [tex]$=3.75 \times 10^{-3}$[/tex] days

                            = 5.4 minute

There are 3 reactors, hence total contact time = 3 x 5.4

                                                                            = 16.2 minute

Or [tex]$\frac{N_t}{N_0}=e^{-k'C^n t}$[/tex]

or [tex]$(1-0.9999)=e^{-4.71 \times C \times t}$[/tex]

∴ C x t = 1.955

For PFR, [tex]$t_1 = 27 $[/tex] min

∴ C [tex]$=\frac{1.955}{27}$[/tex] = 0.072 mg/L

For CSIR, [tex]$t_2=16.2$[/tex] min

[tex]$C=\frac{1.955}{16.2} = 0.1206$[/tex] mg/L

∴ Chlorine required for PFR in kg/day

[tex]$=\frac{0.072 \times 40 \times 10^6 \times 3.785}{10^6}$[/tex]      (1 gallon = 3.785 L)

= 18.25 kg/day

Therefore we should go for PFR system.

When NH3(g) reacts with O2(g) to form N2O(g) and H2O(l) , 342 kJ of energy are evolved for each mole of NH3(g) that reacts. Write a balanced thermochemical equation for the reaction with an energy term in kJ as part of the equation. Note that the answer box for the energy term is case sensitive. Use the SMALLEST INTEGER coefficients possible and put the energy term (including the units) in the last box on the appropriate side of the equation. If a box is not needed, leave it blank.

Answers

Answer:

2 NH₃(g) + 2 O₂(g) ⇒ N₂O(g) + 3 H₂O(l)   ΔH° = -684 kJ

Explanation:

Let's consider the unbalanced equation that occurs when NH₃(g) reacts with O₂(g) to form N₂O(g) and H₂O(l).

NH₃(g) + O₂(g) ⇒ N₂O(g) + H₂O(l)

We will begin balancing N atoms by multiplying NH₃(g) by 2.

2 NH₃(g) + O₂(g) ⇒ N₂O(g) + H₂O(l)

Then, we will balance H atoms by multiplying H₂O(l) by 3.

2 NH₃(g) + O₂(g) ⇒ N₂O(g) + 3 H₂O(l)

Finally, we will get the balanced equation by multiplying O₂(g) by 2.

2 NH₃(g) + 2 O₂(g) ⇒ N₂O(g) + 3 H₂O(l)

Since 342 kJ of energy are evolved for each mole of NH₃(g), and there are 2 moles of NH₃(g) in the balanced equation, the heat evolved will be2 × 342 kJ = 684 kJ. By convention, when heat is evolved, it takes a negative sign. The balanced thermochemical equation is:

2 NH₃(g) + 2 O₂(g) ⇒ N₂O(g) + 3 H₂O(l)   ΔH° = -684 kJ

Warm front

Explanation:

A warm front forms when a warm air mass pushes into a cooler air mass, shown in the image to the right (A). Warm fronts often bring stormy weather as the warm air mass at the surface rises above the cool air mass, making clouds and storms. Warm fronts move more slowly than cold fronts because it is more difficult for the warm air to push the cold, dense air across the Earth's surface. Warm fronts often form on the east side of low-pressure systems where warmer air from the south is pushed north.

You will often see high clouds like cirrus, cirrostratus, and middle clouds like altostratus ahead of a warm front. These clouds form in the warm air that is high above the cool air. As the front passes over an area, the clouds become lower, and rain is likely. There can be thunderstorms around the warm front if the air is unstable.

On weather maps, the surface location of a warm front is represented by a solid red line with red, filled-in semicircles along it, like in the map on the right (B). The semicircles indicate the direction that the front is moving. They are on the side of the line where the front is moving. Notice on the map that temperatures at ground level are cooler in front of the front than behind it.

Using your freshly made 5M stock aqueous solution of NaCl and your 10% aqueous stock of SDS, you find a prepackaged bottle of 1M Tris-Hcl (aqueous solution) along with a 95% solution of liquid NP-40 in a bottle. Using these stock reagents calculate the amount needed for the following final concentrations for each reagent as well as the final volume of water needed to obtain:
Total Final volume of 500 mL
Final Concentrations:
150 mM NaCl
50 mM Tris-HCl
1% NP-40 .
1% SDS

Answers

Answer:

1. Volume of stock required = 15 mL

Volume of water required = 485 mL

2. Volume of stock required = 5 mL

Volume of water required = 495 mL

3. Volume of stock required = 5.30 mL

Volume of water required = 494.70 mL

4. Volume of stock required = 50 mL

Volume of water required = 450 mL

Explanation:

Using the dilution formula C₁V₁ = C₂V₂

Where C₁ = initial concentration; C₂ = final concentration; V₁ = initial volume; V₂ = final volume

1. C₁ = 5 M NaCl, C₂ = 150 mM NaCl = 0.15 M NaCl

V₁ = ?; V₂ = 500 mL

V₁ = C₂V₂/C₁

V₁ = 0.15 × 500/ 5 = 15 mL

Volume of stock required = 15 mL

Volume of water required = 500 mL - 15 mL

Volume of water required = 485 mL

2. C₁ = 1 M Tris-HCl, C₂ = 50 mM Tris-HCl = 0.05 M Tris-HCl

V₁ = ?; V₂ = 500 mL

V₁ = C₂V₂/C₁

V₁ = 0.05 × 500/ 5 = 5 mL

Volume of stock required = 5 mL

Volume of water required = 500 mL - 5 mL

Volume of water required = 495 mL

3. C₁ = 95% NP-40, C₂ = 1% NP-40

V₁ = ?; V₂ = 500 mL

V₁ = C₂V₂/C₁

V₁ = 1 × 500/ 95 = 5.30 mL

Volume of stock required = 5.30 mL

Volume of water required = 500 mL - 5.30 mL

Volume of water required = 494.70 mL

4. C₁ = 1% SDS, C₂ = 10% SDS

V₁ = ?; V₂ = 500 mL

V₁ = C₂V₂/C₁

V₁ = 1 × 500/ 10 = 50 mL

Volume of stock required = 50 mL

Volume of water required = 500 mL - 50 mL

Volume of water required = 450 mL

You are performing an acid-base neutralization reaction in the laboratory to determine the concentration of an unknown base. You are supposed to titrate it with a monoprotic acid, but your lab partner accidentally fills your buret with sulfuric acid, a diprotic acid, with the same concentration as the acid called for in the experiment. How will the volume of diprotic acid compare to the volume of monoprotic acid you would have used

Answers

Answer:

Volume is reduced to half

Explanation:

Acid base titration are commonly used reactions in a lab, and are ofter used to get pH or different kind of solutions.

The neutralization of an acid base reaction is reached, when the solution (having added an indicator previously) changes its original color. chemically speaking, this occurs when the number of moles of the acid and the base are balanced and equal. In other words the following:

n₁ = n₂   (1)

This expression can also be expressed in function of concentration and volume:

M₁V₁ = M₂V₂   (2)

From here, solving for V₁:

V₁ = M₂V₂  / M₁

Now, this expression is true only when we have the same kind of substance that can lose or gain the same number of hydrogens.

Lets suppose that we have as base NaOH (Monoprotic base) and HCl (monoprotic acid), the titration reaction would be:

NaOH + HCl --------> NaCl + H₂O

As both of the species are monoprotic, the number of moles are the same  when they reach the equilibrium, so, expression  (2) can be used, and calculate volume or concentrations.

However, in this case, a partner made a mistake and use a diprotic acid, in this case, H₂SO₄, In this case, things chance because H₂SO₄ is diprotic, meaning that we need to dissociate two hydrogens in equilibrium, therefore, expression (2) would be something like this.

Acid: 1; Base: 2

H₂SO₄ + 2NaOH ------> Na₂SO₄ + H₂O

nH₂SO₄ = n₁ = 1

nNaOH = n₂ = 2

n₁/n₂ = 1/2

2n₁ = n₂   (3)

Writting this, in function of concentration and volume, it would be:

2M₁V₁ = M₂V₂   (4)

From here, if we solve for the volume of the acid (V₁):

V₁ = M₂V₂ / 2M₁

Therefore, according to this expression, we can see that the volume required of the acid would be half the volume required of the monoprotic acid. For example, if we need 50 mL of Chloridic acid to reach the equivalence point with NaOH, then, with H₂SO₄ it will only need 25 mL. This, of course, assuming that concentrations are the same, and volume of the base used, the same.

Answers

Answer: The diagonal relationship is present between the lighter elements of periods second, thirds.

Explanation:

Elements which are present diagonally adjacent to each other in the second and third periods of the periodic table tends to show diagonal relationship as they have similar properties.

For example, Lithium is a second period element and magnesium is a third period element.

Hence, lithium and magnesium show diagonal relationship with each other.

Thus, we can conclude that diagonal relationship is present between the lighter elements of periods second, thirds.

what characteristics of a metallic bond explains some of the properties of metals

Answers

Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

Metallic bonds involve attraction between electrons and positively charged metal ions. The metals are ionized and electrons form a sea of valence electrons. These loosely bound electrons surround the nuclei of the metals.

The presence of this sea of electrons explains the fact that metals conduct electricity and heat due to the free valence electrons.

Due to the nature of the bonding between metal atoms,metals are malleable and ductile.

Due to the strong electrostatic interaction between metal ions and electrons, the metallic bond is very strong and is very difficult to break thereby accounting for the greater strength of metals as the size of the metallic ion decreases.

A saline solution, NaCl in water, is 0.92 % (m/v). How many grams of NaCl are required to prepare 35.0 mL of this solution?

Answers

Answer:

0.322 g

Explanation:

Since our concentration is given in mass per volume percent % (m/v)

% (m/v) = mass of solute in g/volume of solution in mL × 100%

Since % (m/v) = 0.92 and volume of the required solution is 35.0 mL, we find the mass of NaCl from

mass of NaCl = % (m/v)/100 % × volume of solution

= 0.92 % (m/v)/100 %× 35 mL

= 0.0092 × 35

= 0.322 g

The study of a chemical is called chemistry.

The correct answer is 0.322 g

The saline is said that the amount of salt present in the solution. The formula used to solve the question is as follows:-

[tex]\frac{m}{v} = \frac{mass \ of\ solute}{volume\ of\ solution} * 100[/tex]

The data is given as follows:-

0.92 %(m/v)Volume is 35.0 mL,

Mass of NaCl is as follows:-

 [tex]\frac{0.92}{100} * 35 mL[/tex]

[tex]0.0092 * 35\\= 0.322 g[/tex]

Hence, the correct answer is 0.322g.
