You are requested to reduce the size of 50 ton/hr of a given solid. The size of the feed is such 80% passes a 4-in (76.2 mm) scr

een and 80 % of the product passes a (1/4) inch ( 3.175 mm). Knowing the work index of the solid (Ei=9.45), calculate the required power for the operation in hp. ACTIVITY II A packed bed is composed of spheres having a diameter of 12 mm. The bulk density of the overall packed bed is 990 kg/m3 and the density of solid spheres is 1570 kg/m3. Calculate the void fraction of the bed.

Answer:

1) The power needed to process 50 ton/hr is 135.4 HP.

2) The void fraction of the bed is 0.37.

Explanation:

1) For this type of milling operations, we can estimate the power needed for an operation according to the work index (Ei), the passing size of the circuit feed (F80) and the passing size of the product (P80).

We assume the units of Ei are kWh/t.

The equation that relates this parameters and the power is (size of particles in μm):

W=Ei*(\frac{10}{\sqrt{P80}} -\frac{10}{\sqrt{F80}} )\\\\W=9.45*(\frac{10}{\sqrt{3175\mu m}} -\frac{10}{\sqrt{76200mm}} )\\\\\\W=9.45*(0.1774+0.0362)=2.019 kWh/t

The power needed to process 50 ton/hor is

P=2.0194\frac{kWh}{Ton}*\frac{50Ton}{h}*\frac{1.341HP}{1kW}=   135.4 \, HP

2) The density of the packed bed can be expressed as

\rho=f_v*\rho_v+f_s*\rho_s

being f the fraction and ρ the density of every fraction. We know that the density of the void is 0 (ρv=0) and that fv=1-fs (the sum  of the fractions ois equal to the total space).

Then we can rearrange

\rho=f_v*\rho_v+f_s*\rho_s\\\\\rho=f_v*0+(1-f_v)*\rho_s\\\\\rho/\rho_s=1-f_v\\\\f_v=1-\rho/\rho_s=1-990/1570=1-0.63=0.37

The void fraction of the bed is 0.37.

<h3>Answer:</h3>

3, 2, 1, 4

<h3>Further explanation:</h3>

The process of photosynthesis is the process of converting carbon dioxide and water into energy in the form of carbohydrates using sunlight. Usually done by plants that have leafy za called chlorophyll.

Carbohydrates themselves are formed from the C-carbon, H-hydrogen and O-oxygen components

Rabbit food is carrots that contain carbohydrates, which are part of the photosynthesis process

3. The carrot plant takes in carbon dioxide from the air during photosynthesis.

Reaction

6CO₂ + 6H₂O ⇒ C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂

2. The rabbit eats the carrot plant.

Rabbits meet their carbohydrate source for energy by eating carrots

1. The rabbit decomposes.

Rabbits in time will experience a process of decomposition

4 - Carbon compounds are returned to the soil.

The carbon content in rabbits will also be decomposed into the soil again

What Is Chemical Equilibrium?a. When all reactants turn into products, the chemical reaction reaches equilibrium. c. Reactants a
Gnoma [55]

Answer:

The correct answer is <em>d. At equilibrium, the forward reaction and reverse reaction will have the same reaction rate.</em>

Explanation:

When a reaction begins, the reactants combine to form products. At the same time of product formation, the convertion of products into reactants also occur. The reaction reaches <em>chemical equilibrium </em>when the rate of forward reaction (the convertion of reactant into products) is equal to the rate of reverse reaction (the convertion of product into reactants). Upon this state, the concentration of reactants and products do not change in time (that does not mean that the concentration of reactants and products are equal, but that once the chemical equilibrium is reached, their concentrations at this point will not vary with the time because the forward and reverse reactions are occuring at the same velocity).
