What is the difference between ethanol and methanol.

Chemistry
1 answer:
KiRa [710]2 years ago
7 0
Methanol and ethanol are alcohol variants. Methanol contains only one carbon and ethanol contains two carbon in each molecule. Both substances can be used as energy sources, but methanol primarily serves as a research subject, and its use as a motor fuel has been mostly phased out in the United States.

Spell out the full name of the compound.
Natalka [10]

Explanation:

Step one look for the longest chain of carbon atoms

Longest chain is 7 C atoms

Step 2 look for double bonds or others functional groups

it is present in 3rd carbon

Therefore IUPAC name is 3-heptene

From point of stereochemistry it can also be written as trans-3-heptene as the hydrogens are placed in opposite side of the C=C bond.

Hope this helps...

A food processing plant discharges 40 cfs (cubic feet per second) of process water containing an ultimate BOD (L0) of 25 mg/L an
Feliz [49]

Answer:

The right solution according to the question is provided below.

Explanation:

According to the question,

(a)

The initial conditions will be:

DO = \frac{(40\times 1.8)+(260\times 7.6)}{40+260}

      = \frac{2048}{300}

      = 6.826 \ mg/L

The initial oxygen defict will be:

Do = 8.5-6.826

     = 1.674 \ mg/L

The initial BOD will be:

Lo = \frac{(40\times 25)+(260\times 3.6)}{40+260}

    = \frac{1936}{300}

    = 6.453 \ mg/L

(b)

The time reach minimum DO:

tc = \frac{1}{(kr-kd)} ln{(\frac{0.76}{0.61} )[1-\frac{1.674(0.76-0.61)}{0.61\times 6.453} ]}

   = \frac{1}{0.15}\times ln \ 1.158

By putting the values of log, we get

   = 0.973 \ days

The distance to reach minimum DO will be:

Xc = \frac{1.1\times 3600\times 24}{5280}\times 0.973 \ days

    = 18\times 0.973

    = 17.5 \ miles
