How do engineers evaluate potential solutions to complex problems?

Chemistry
1 answer:
loris [4]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

  1. Break down a problem into smaller units or sub-problems.
  2. Reverse engineering, or taking something apart so as to evaluate and provide solutions.

Explanation:

For the first one, if you are a computer engineer for example, it is hard to troubleshoot a whole program but if you write small stand alone sections, you can easily troubleshoot the smaller section.

Consider the following hypothetical molecular collisions and predict which of the following will form potential products, given
Annette [7]

Answer:

The collision theory is defined as the rate of a reaction is proportional to the rate of reactant collisions.

Explanation:

The reacting species should collide with orientation that allows contract between the atoms that will become bonds together in the product.

The collision occurs with adequate energy  to permit mutual penetration of the reacting species. The two physical factors based on the orientation and energy of collision, the following reaction with carbon monoxide with oxygen is considered.

 2CO(g) + O2(g) → 2CO2 (g)

After collision between the carbon monoxide and oxygen the reaction is

 CO(g) + O2(g) → CO2 (g) + O(g)

Based on the theories of chemical reaction the molecules collide with sufficient amount of energy an activated complex is formed.

How many kilograms of a fertilizer are made of pure P2O5 would be required to supply 1.69 kilogram of phosphorus to the soil?
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

3.89 kg P2O5 must be used to supply 1.69 kg Phosphorus to the soil.

Explanation:

The molecular mass of P2O5 is

P2 = 2* 31 =           62

O5 = 5 *<u> 16 =         80</u>

Molecular Mass = 142

Set up a Proportion

142 grams P2O5 supplies 62 grams of phosphorus

x    kg P2O5        supplies 1.69 kg of phosphorus

Though this might be a bit anti intuitive, you don't have to convert the units for this question. The ratio is all that is important.

142/x = 62/1.69            Cross multiply

142 * 1.69 = 62x           combine the left

239.98 = 62x               Divide by 62

239.98/62 = x

3.89 kg of P2O5 must be used.
