Evaporation of Cane Sugar Solutions. An evaporator is used to concentrate cane sugar solutions. A feed of 10 000 kg/d of a solut

ion containing 38 wt % sugar is evaporated, producing a 74 wt % solution. Calculate the weight of solution produced and amount of water removed.

Answer:

Weight of solution produced = 5135 kg

Amount of water removed = 4865 kg

Explanation:

For the balance of mass, the incoming mass of sugar must be equal to the outgoing mass. So, the incoming mass (mi) is 38% of 10000 kg

mi = 0.38x10000 = 3800 kg

The outgoing mass (mo) must be 3800 kg, and it is 74% of the total mass (mt)

mo = 0.74xmt

0.74xmt = 3800

mt = 3800/0.74

mt = 5135 kg

This is the mass of solution produced.

The amount of water removed (wr) is the amount of water incoming (wi) less the amount of water outgoing (wo). Both will be the total mass less the mass of sugar :

wi = 10000 - 3800 = 6200 kg

wo = 5135 - 3800 = 1335 kg

wr = wi - wo

wr = 6200 - 1335

wr = 4865 kg

Why is large-scale nuclear fission a rare phenomenon on Earth? A. There isn't enough energy to start a chain reaction in nature.
siniylev [52]

The answer is; C

The radioisotopes in the interior of the earth are not in pure form and have many embedded impurities and are interspersed. Therefore when a neutron is released by a decaying atom, its chances of hitting another radioisotope atom (to continue the chain reaction) are lower than in a manmade nuclear reactor. This way, the radioactive chain reaction in the earth’s interior is not well sustained.

The density of whole milk 1.04 g per mL. What is the volume (in quarts) of 18.5 pounds of whole milk?
nadya68 [22]

The volume : 8,526 quarts

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

The density of whole milk = 1.04 g/ml

mass = 18.5 pounds

Required

The volume

Solution

Conversion of mass

1 pound = 453,592 g

18.5 pounds = 8391,45 g

Density formula:

\large{\boxed {\bold {\rho~=~ \frac {m} {V}}}}.

Input the value :

V = m : ρ

V = 8391,45 g : 1.04 g/ml

V = 8068.7 ml

1 ml = 0,00105669 quarts

8068.7 ml =8,526 quarts
