Separation of components of crude oil
Answer: Temperature = T, unknown
Saturated Solution, NH4Cl concentration = 60g/100g H2O = 0.6g NH4Cl/g H2O
Assume density of H2O = 1 g/ml
m = 0.6g NH4Cl/g H2O / 1 g/ml
m = 0.6g NH4Cl/ml
See the table of saturated solutions and identify the temperature at which the concentration of NH4Cl is 60g/100g H2O.
Explanation: The line on the graph on reference table G indicates a saturated solution of NH4CL as a concentration of 60. g NH4 Cl/100. g H2O
One of the many awe-inspiring things about algae, Professor Greene explains, is that they can grow between ten and 100 times faster than land plants. In view of this speedy growth rate – combined with the fact they can thrive virtually anywhere in the right conditions – growing marine microalgae could provide a variety of solutions to some of the world’s most pressing problems.
Take, global warming. Algae sequesters CO2, as we have learned, but owing to the fact they grow faster than land plants, can cover wider areas and can be utilised in bioreactors, they can actually absorb CO2 more effectively than land plants. AI company Hypergiant Industries, for instance, say their algae bioreactor was 400 times more efficient at taking in CO2 than trees.
And it’s not just their nutritional credentials which could solve humanity’s looming food crisis, but how they are produced. Marine microalgae grow in seawater, which means they do not rely on arable land or freshwater, both of which are in limited supply. Professor Greene believes the use of these organisms could therefore release almost three million km2 of cropland for reforestation, and also conserve one fifth of global freshwater
