2. (Exercise 4.1.6) A liquid adhesive consists of a polymer dissolved in a solvent. The amount of polymer in the solution is imp

ortant to the application. An adhesive dealer receives an order for 3000 lb of an adhesive solution containing 13% polymer by weight. On hand are 500 lb of 10% solution and very large quantities of 20% solution and pure solvent. Calculate the weight of each that must be blended together to fill this order. Use all of the 10% solution.

Answer:

800 lb of pure solvent , 1700 lb of 20% solution and 500 lb of 10% solution will be mixed to form 3000 lb of 13 % solution .

Explanation:

3000 lb of 13% solution is required .

Total adhesive in weight = 3000 x .13 = 390 lb of adhesive

Available = 500 lb of 10% solution = 50 lb of adhesive

Rest = 390 - 50 = 340 lb required .

rest mass of solution = 3000 - 500 = 2500 lb

mass of adhesive required = 340 lb

Let the mass  of 20% required be V

mass of adhesive = .20 V

.20 V = 340

V = 1700

rest of the volume = 2500 - 1700 = 800 lb which will be of pure solvent

So 800 lb of pure solvent , 1700 lb of 20% solution and 500 lb of 10% solution will be mixed to form 3000 lb of 13 % solution .

A4 g sugar cube (Sucrose : C 12 H 22 O 11 ) is dissolved in a 350 ml teacup of 80 C water. What is the percent composition by ma
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

%Sgr = 1% (1 sig.fig.)

Explanation:

mass water = 350ml x 0.975g/ml = 341.25g

mass sugar added = 4g

solution mass = 341.25g + 4g = 345.25g

%sugar = (4g/345.25g)·100% = 1.1586% ≅ 1% (1 sig.fig)

How might the biodiversity of a mowed lawn compare to that of huge weedy field?
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer: The mowed lawn is the one from where the grasses are removed by using the machines or tools.

Explanation:

The mowed lawn is expected to have low number of species as the grasses may be few or scanty thus can support the population of few species like insects, mice, birds, and small number of grazing animals. On the other hand the weedy field can be hub of insects, reptiles like snakes, small mammals, and large mammals. Large weed field can provide food, and habitat to the large number of species. This will support the increase in biodiversity as compared to the mowed lawn.

Does the color of bell peppers effect the number of seeds inside? Please someone help ASAP I need it today
Mekhanik [1.2K]

I don't think so. "It's not a matter of pigment discrimination: Red and yellow bell peppers are essentially just green peppers that have been allowed to ripen"
