Increasing alternative energy sources

1) Answer is: a.increasing alternative energy sources.

For example, using more biofuels derived directly from plants or solar energy.

Biofuel is renewable energy source, but not green energy source. Green energy does not harm ecosystems, contribute to acid rain, or worsen global warming. Biofuels produce greenhouse gases (carbone dioxide, methane).

Solar radiation is the source of electric energy.

2) Answer is:

a) Separation.

Crude oil is mixture (solution) consist of several different hydrocarbons (alkanes, alkenes...).

This hydroalkanes can be separated from mixture (crude oil) using distilation (usually fractional distillation), because they have different boiling points.

b) Conversion.

Hydrocarbons with bigger molecular mass are split into lighter ones.

c) Treatment.

For example gasoline, diesel fuel and heating oil are made.

You are given a solid that is a mixture of na2so4 and k2so4.

Murljashka [212]

Here we have to calculate the amount of $SO_{4}^{2-}$ ion present in the sample.

In the sample solution 0.122g of $SO_{4}^{2-}$ ion is present.

The reaction happens on addition of excess BaCl₂ in a sample solution of potassium sulfate (K₂SO₄) and sodium sulfate [(Na)₂SO₄] can be written as-

K₂SO₄ = 2K⁺ + $SO_{4}^{2-}$

(Na)₂SO₄=2Na⁺ + $SO_{4}^{2-}$

Thus, BaCl₂+ $SO_{4}^{2-}$ = BaSO₄↓ + 2Cl⁻ .

(Na)₂SO₄ and K₂SO₄ is highly soluble in water and the precipitation or the filtrate is due to the BaSO₄ only. As a precipitation appears due to addition of excess BaCl₂ thus the total amount of $SO_{4}^{2-}$ ion is precipitated in this reaction.

The precipitate i.e. barium sulfate (BaSO₄)is formed in the reaction which have the mass 0.298g.

Now the molecular weight of BaSO₄ is 233.3 g/mol.

We know the molecular weight of sulfate ion ( $SO_{4}^{2-}$ ) is 96.06 g/mol. Thus in 1 mole of BaSO₄ 96.06 g of $SO_{4}^{2-}$ ion is present.

Or. we may write in 233.3 g of BaSO₄ 96.06 g of $SO_{4}^{2-}$ ion is present. So in 1 g of BaSO₄ $\frac{96.06}{233.3}=0.411$ g of $SO_{4}^{2-}$ ion is present.

Or, in 0.298 g of the filtered mass (0.298×0.411)=0.122g of $SO_{4}^{2-}$ ion is present.

Calculate the theoretical carbonaceous and nitrogenous oxygen demand for:

serg [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is 129 mg and 232 mg.

Explanation:

Theoretical carbonaceous oxygen demand:

The reaction will be,

C₂H₆O₂ + 5/2 O₂ ⇒ 2CO₂ + 3H₂O

Thus, for one mole of C₂H₆O₂ (ethylene glycol), 2.5 moles of O₂ is needed.

The molecular mass of ethylene glycol is 62 grams per mole.

The given mass of ethylene glycol is 100 mg or 0.1 grams

The moles of ethylene glycol will be,

Moles = Weight/Molecular mass

= 0.1/62 = 1.613 × 10⁻³ mol

For 1.613 × 10⁻³ mol, the moles of O₂ will be,

= 2.5×1.613×10⁻³

= 4.0.×10⁻³ × 32mol

= 0.129 grams or 129 mg.

The theoretical nitrogenous oxygen demand is:

The reaction will be,

2NH₃-N + 9/2O₂ ⇒ 4HNO2 + H₂O

Thus, for 2 moles of NH₃-N, 4.5 moles of O₂ is needed,

Therefore, for 1 mol of NH₃-N, the oxygen required will be,

= 4.5/2 = 2.25 mol

The given mass of NH₃-N is 100 mg, the moles of NH₃-N will be,

Moles = 100×10⁻³/31 = 3.225 × 10⁻³ mol (The molecular mass of NH₃-N is 31 gram per mole)

The moles of O₂ is 2.25 × 3.225 × 10⁻³ = 7.258 × 10⁻³ mol.

Now the mass of O2 will be,

= 7.258 × 10⁻³ × 32

= 0.232 grams

= 232 mg
