A water contains 50.40 mg/L as CaCO3 of carbon dioxide, 190.00 mg/L as CaCO3 of Ca2 and 55.00 mg/L as CaCO3 of Mg2 . All of the

hardness is carbonate hardness. Using the stoichiometry of the lime soda ash softening equations, what is the daily sludge production (in dry weight, kg/day) if the plant treats water at a rate of 2.935 m^3/s. Assume that the effluent water contains no carbon dioxide, 30.0 mg. L^-1 as CaCO3 of Ca2+ and 10.0 mg.L^1 as CaCO3 of Mg2+. Be sure to calculate the mass of CaC03 and Mg(OH)2 sludge produced each day.

Answer:

Total sludge = 123426kg/d

Explanation:

The reaction is given as;

H2Co3 + Ca(OH)2 ⇆ CaCo3 + 2H20

   1              1                   1              2 moles

Calculating the concentration of C02, we have

Concentration of C02 = concentration of CaCo3/Molecular weight of Caco3

                                     = 50.4/100.09

                                     = 0.5035mol/L

Sludge of Co2 = Conc. of Co2 * Q * MW of CaCo3 *10^-6

                         = 0.5035 * 253.6 *10^6 * 100.09 * 10^-6

                         = 12780kg/d

From the equation Ca2+ + 2HCo3- + Ca(OH)2 ⇄ 2CaCo3 + 2H2O

1 mole of calcium yields 2 moles of CaCo3

Therefore, Concentration of Ca2+ = Conc. of CaCo3/Mw of CaCO3

                                                         = 190-30/100.09

                                                         =1.599mol/L

Calculating sludge of calcium:

Sludge of Ca = 2 * Conc. of ca * Q * mw of CaCO3 * 10^-6

                       = 2 * 1.599 *253.6*10^6* 100.09 * 10^-6

                       = 811742kg/d

From the equation,

Mg2+ +2HCO3- + Ca(OH)2 ⇄ MgCO3 + 2CaCO3 + 2H2O

1 mole of mg yields 2 moles CaCO3 and 1 mole of Mg(OH)2

Concentration of Mg2+ = Conc, of CaCO3 /Mw of CaCo3

                                       = 55- 10/100.09

                                       = 0.4496mol/L

Sludge of Mg = 2 *  Conc. of Mg * Q * mw of CaCO3 * 10^-6 +* Conc. of Mg * Q * mw of Mg(OH)2 * 10^-6

= 2 * 0.4496 * 253.5*10^6 * 100.09 * 10^-6 + 0.4996* 253.5*10^6 58.3 * 10^-6

= 29472kg/d

Total Sludge = Sludge of CO2 + Sludge of Ca + Sludge of Mg

                      12780+ 81174 + 29472

                       = 123426kg/d

4. The instant the ignition switch is turned to the start position,
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

D. Both pull-in and hold-in windings are energized.

Explanation:

The instant the ignition switch is turned to the start position, "Both pull-in and hold-in windings are energized." This is because the moment the ignition switch is turned to the start position, voltage passes through to the S terminal of the solenoid.

The hold-in winding is attached to the case of the solenoid. Similarly, the pull-in winding is also attached to the starter motor. Thereby, the current will move across both windings by getting energized to generate a strong magnetic field.

When working cattle through a chute, stop cattle by moving…point of balance.
timofeeve [1]

When the handler has reached the point of balance of the animal, they should stop walking so that they may move only one animal at a time. The point of balance for cattle that are being worked with in limited places such as races and chutes is often found at the animal's shoulder, as seen by the diagrams.

This is further explained below.

<h3>What is a chute?</h3>

Generally, Chutes are channels, planes, or passageways that are either vertical or slanted and through which things may be transported using only gravity.

In conclusion, When the handler has reached the point where the animal's point of balance has been crossed, they should stop walking so that they may move just one animal.

As seen in the illustrations, the point of balance for cattle being worked with in restricted spaces like races and chutes is often located at the animal's shoulder.
