Answer:

a) m=336.18N

b) Vn=16.67m/kmol

Vm=0.1459m^3/kg

Explanation:

To calculate the mass of the octane(m):

Number of mole of octane (n) =0.3kmol(given)

Molarmass of octane (M) =114.23kg/kmol

m=n*M

m=(0.3kmol)*(114.23kg/kmol)

m=34.269kg

To calculate for the weight of octane(W):

W=g*m

W=(9.81m/s^2)*(34.269kg)

W=336.18N

b) For specific volumes of Vn and Vm:

Given volume of octane (V) =5m^3

Vm=V/m

Vm=5m^3/34.269kg

Vm=0.1459m^3/kg

And Vn will be :

Vn=V/m=5m^3/0.3kmol

Vn=16.67m/Kmol

Therefore, the answers are:

a) m=336.18N

b) Vn=16.67m/kmol

Vm=0.1459m^3/kg

The following laboratory test results for Atterberg limits and sieve-analysis were obtained for an inorganic soil. [6 points] Si
alexira [117]

Answer: hello the complete question is attached below

answer:

A) Group symbol = SW

B) Group name = well graded sand , fine to coarse sand

C) It is not a clean sand given that ≤ 50% particles are retained on No 200

Explanation:

<u>A) Classifying the soil according to USCS system</u>

 ( using 2nd image attached below )

<em>description of sand</em> :

The soil is a coarse sand since  ≤ 50% particles are retained on No 200 sieve, also

The soil is a sand given that more than 50% particles passed from No 4 sieve

The soil can be a clean sand given that fines ≤ 12%

The soil can be said to be a well graded sand because the percentage of particles passing through decreases gradually over time

Group symbol as per the 2nd image attached below = SW

B) Group name = well graded sand , fine to coarse sand

C) It is not a clean sand given that ≤ 50% particles are retained on No 200

A growing trend in urban design is the concept of a rooftop garden. If every building in a city were to install a rooftop garden
vlabodo [156]

Answer:The Urban heat island temperature will be REDUCED.

Two Impacts of Rooftop gardens

1) provision of shade against Sunlight.

2) It helps to purify the air around the building.

Explanation: Rooftop gardens are gardens made on top of the roofs of buildings, it is a Green initiative aimed at helping to improve the overall Environment.

Rooftop gardens have several significant benefits which includes

Reduction of the surrounding temperatures and the Urban heat Island temperatures.

Rooftop gardens helps to shade the roof from the direct impacts of harsh weather conditions.

Generally, plants are known as air purifiers as they remove the excess Carbondioxide around the environment through photosynthesis, and they also help to release water vapor which will help to improve the humidity of the environment.

Five kilograms of air at 427°C and 600 kPa are contained in a piston–cylinder device. The air expands adiabatically until the pr
son4ous [18]

Answer:

The entropy change of the air is 0.240kJ/kgK

Explanation:

T_{1} =427+273K,T_{1} =700K\\P_{1} =600kPa\\P_{2} =100kPa

T_{2}  is unknown

we can apply the following expression to find T_{2}

-w_{out} =mc_{v} (T_{2} -T_{1} )

T_{2} =T_{1} -\frac{w_{out } }{mc_{v} }

now substitute

T_{2} =700K-\frac{600kJ}{5kg*0.718kJ/kgK} \\T_{2}=533K

To find entropy change of the air we can apply the ideal gas relationship

Δs_{air}=c_{p} ln\frac{T_{2} }{T_{1} } -Rln\frac{P_{2} }{P_{1} }

Δs_{air} =1.005*ln(\frac{533}{700})-0.287* in(\frac{100}{600} )

Δs_{air} =0.240kJ/kgK
