A 35 MGD surface Water treatement plant proposes to to use alum Coagulation for turbidity reduction using 44 mg/ L alum. the raw

water has an alkalinity of 80 mg / L as CaCO3. Commercial alum has the Formula Al2(SO4)3 X 18H2O (MW= 666).
A) determine the daily Alum Dosage Required in Kg/ day?

B) Using the Equivalent concept , how much alkalinity is used up by the alum added?

C) is the water alkalinity adequate. i.e , is it grater than the alkalinity consumed by alum?

In neutralization reactions, a base and an acid react to form an ionic salt and water. There is a rule that when a strong base and a strong acid react, the pH of their salt is always neutral which is at pH 7. However, this is only true if equal amounts of acid and base are consumed and that there is no excess. Otherwise, the excess acidity or basicity will adjust the total pH.

Strong acids are the following: HCl, HBr, HI, HClO4, HClO3, HNO3 and H2SO4. Strong bases are KOH, LiOH, NaOH, Ca(OH)2, Sr(OH)2 and Ba(OH)2. Therefore, we can already establish that both of the reactants are strong. The complete reaction is

HBr + KOH ⇒ KBr + H₂O

So, 1 mole of HBr would require 1 mol of KOH, and vice versa. Let'scompute the amount of the initial reactants:

mol HBr: (0.25 mol/L)*(0.92 L) = 0.23 mol HBr
mol KOH: (0.5 mol/L)*(0.46 L) = 0.23 mol KOH

There are equal amounts of acid and base. Thus, pH of the KBr solution is neutral at pH 7.

What is the significance of enzymes in maintaining homeostasis in living organisms ?
GalinKa [24]
 Enzymes are needed for metabolic pathways in the body, respiration, digestion and other important life processes. When enzymes function properly, homeostasis is maintained. However, if an enzyme is lacking or has an incorrect shape due to genetic mutation, this can lead to disease within an organism.
