Answer:

FCI=458000*8*40000^{0.3}\\FCI=880818398.52 M

FCI=88.0818 MM≅88 MM

Explanation:

Empirical correlation based on the work of Bridgwater and Mumford (1979):

For Liquid or solid phase Plants:

FCI=458000*N*F^{0.3}                       F<60,000 tonne/yr     Eq (1)

FCI=7000*N*F^{0.68}                         F≥60,000 tonnes/yr   Eq (2)

Where:

N is the number of functional units

F is the process throughput tonnes/yr

In our case F=40,000 tonne/yr <60,000 tonne/yr, We are going to use Eq (1)

FCI=458000*N*F^{0.3}                       F<60,000 tonne/yr

N=8, F=40,000 tonne/yr

FCI=458000*8*40000^{0.3}\\FCI=880818398.52 M

FCI=88.0818 MM≅88 MM

If 2 objects have the same volume, but one has more mass than the other, are the densities the same or different? Explain
laiz [17]

The one with higher mass has a higher density because it fits more mass into the same amount of space (volume).

Hello people ~<br>(๑¯◡¯๑)how can we separate mercury and water?​
Sindrei [870]

Answer:

Explanation:

Sure you can - Mercury and water are both liquid at room temperature and atmospheric pressure. But Mercury is much much heavier or denser than water. So much that the two substances will not mix.  The lighter water can be separated by pouring it out while the heavy Mercury will stay in the bottom.
