A more experienced colleague mentions to you that you should aim for a dissolved oxygen concentration around 1.0 mg/L at day 5 o

f the experiment. They show you data from a similar wastewater spill that happened last year, in which the BOD5 of the stream water was 60 mg/L. From your previous experiment, you found that the dissolved oxygen concentration at day 0 was 10 mg/L. Based on this information, what dilution factor, P, should you try in your reactor?

Answer:

3

Explanation:

Lt= Loe^(-kt)

Data:

Lo = 10 mg/mL

Assume k = 0.23/da

1. Calculate L5

L5 = 10e^(-5×0.23) = 10e^-1.15 = 10 × 0.317 = 3.17 mg/mL

2. Calculate the dilution factor

You expect to find L5 to be about 3

You want L5 to be about 1.

You should use a dilute your sample by a factor of 3.

P = 3

What happens to gas particles when they are compressed?
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

3)Some gas molecules move further apart and some move closer together.

Explanation:

because When more gas particles enter a container, there is less space for the particles to spread out, and they become compressed. The particles exert more force on the interior volume of the container. This force is called pressure. There are several units used to express pressure.

IF YOU KNOW THE REST OF THE TEST'S ANSWERS PLEASE SHARE
Semenov [28]

Answer:

B. a state in which the forward and reverse reactions are proceeding at equal rates

Explanation:

"Chemical equilibrium is the state of a chemical system at which a constant concentration of products and reagents is present. Reactions, which take place in homogeneous solutions, seem to have come to rest because no changes in concentrations of the participating substances can be determined. Substance turnover occurs only on the particle level, which is why chemical equilibrium is also referred to as dynamic equilibrium."

When 125 mL of 0.150 M Pb(NO3)2 is mixed with 145 mL of 0.200 M KBr, 4.92 g of PbBr2 is collected. Calculate the percent yield.
Semenov [28]

Answer:

Y = 92.5 %

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, since the reaction between lead (II) nitrate and potassium bromide is:

Pb(NO_3)_2+2KBr\rightarrow PbBr_2+2KNO_3

Exhibits a 1:2 mole ratio of the former to the later, we can calculate the moles of lead (II) bromide product to figure out the limiting reactant:

0.125L*0.150\frac{molPb(NO_3)_2}{L} *\frac{1molPbBr_2}{1molPb(NO_3)_2} =0.01875molPbBr_2\\\\0.145L*0.200\frac{molKBr}{L} *\frac{1molPbBr_2}{2molKBr} =0.0145molPbBr_2

Thus, the limiting reactant is the KBr as it yields the fewest moles of PbBr2 product. Afterwards, we calculate the mass of product by using its molar mass:

0.0145molPbBr_2*\frac{367.01gPbBr_2}{1molPbBr_2} =5.32gPbBr_2

And the resulting percent yield:

Y=\frac{4.92g}{5.32g} *100\%\\\\Y=92.5\%

Regards!

What is the intermolecular force of NH3
Dominik [7]
ANSWER:
London dispersion and hydrogen bonds.


EXPLANATION :
Every molecule experiences London dispersion as an intermolecular force.since the ammonia ion has hydrogen atoms bonded to nitrogen,a very electronegative atom,the molecule is also polar since the nitrogen atom more strongly pulls on the electrons from the hydrogen atoms than the hydrogens themselves do.

This effect is similar to that water,where the oxygen pulls the electrons of the hydrogen atoms with a greater magnitude,resulting in the oxygen having a partial negative charge and the hydrogens having a partial positive charge relative to each other.

This polarity shows that the molecule has dipole-dipole intermolecular forces but since the polarity is from a result of highly electronegative atoms (such as nitrogen,oxygen,fluorine) and hydrogen atoms actually bonded to them,the polarity is categorized in it's own intermolecular force called a hydrogen bond.
