Answer:

The mean velocity is 13 ft/s.

The Reynolds number is 88,583 and it is dimensionless.

Explanation:

We have water flowing in a pipe of 1.05 in diameter.

The density is ρ=62.3 lb/ft and the viscosity is 1.2 cP.

The mean velocity can be calculated as

u=\frac{Q}{A}=\frac{Q}{\pi*D^2/4}=\frac{35gpm }{3.14*(1.05in)^2/4}\\\\  u=\frac{35}{0.865}*\frac{gal}{min}\frac{1}{in^2}*\frac{231in^3}{1gal}*\frac{1}{60s} \\\\    u=156\,in/s=13\,ft/s

The Reynolds number now can be calculated for this flow as

Re=\frac{\rho*u*D}{\mu}

being ρ: density, u: mean velocity of the fluid, D: internal diameter of the pipe and μ the dynamic viscosity.

To simplify the calculation, we can first make all the variables have coherent units.

<em>Viscosity</em>

\mu=1.2cP=\frac{1.2}{100}\frac{g}{cm*s}*\frac{1lb}{453.6g}*\frac{30.48cm}{1ft}= 0.0008\frac{lb}{ft*s}

<em>Diameter</em>

D=1.05in*(\frac{1ft}{12in} )=0.0875ft

Then the Reynolds number is

Re=\frac{\rho*u*D}{\mu}\\\\Re=62.3\frac{lb}{ft^3}*13\frac{ft}{s} *0.0875ft*\frac{1}{0.0008}*\frac{ft*s}{lb}\\\\Re=88,583

Which of the following accurately describes the behavior of water when subjected to temperature change?
77julia77 [94]
I believe this is the best one:
B. The volume of water will increase if cooled from 3°C to 2°C.

I don't think D) because water expands from 4°C to 0°C

"When liquid water is cooled, it contracts like one would expect until a temp of approximately 4 degrees Celsius is reached. After that, it expands slightly until it reaches the freezing point."

The red colour is the limiting reactant.

Red-blue colour ball and two white balls attached together are reactants.

Red-blue colour ball and two white and one red colour ball attached to each other are products.

<h3>What is a limiting reagent?</h3>

The reactant that is entirely used up in a reaction is called a limiting reagent.

A reactant is a substance that is present at the start of a chemical reaction. The substance(s) to the right of the arrow are called products.

A product is a substance that is present at the end of a chemical reaction.

Hence,

What volume does 0.482 mol of gas occupy at a pressure of 719 mmHg at 56 ∘C?
kozerog [31]

Answer:

The volume is 13, 69 L

Explanation:

We use the formula PV=nRT. We convert the temperature in Celsius into Kelvin and the pressure in mmHg into atm.

0°C= 273K---> 56°C= 56 + 273= 329K

760 mmHg----1 atm

719 mmHg----x= (719 mmHgx 1 atm)/760 mmHg= 0,95 atm

PV=nRT ---> V= (nRT)/P

V=( 0,482 molx 0,082 l atm/K mol x 329K)/0,95 atm

<em>V=13,68778526 L</em>
