If 36 000 kg of full cream milk containing 4% fat is to be separated in a 6 hour period into skim milk with 0.45% fat and cream

with 45% fat, what are the flow rates of the two output streams from a continuous centrifuge which accomplishes this separation?

Answer:

B=5522.33kg/h

C=478.11kg/h

Explanation:

Hi! It's a mass balance. First we have to determine the inflow.

mass flow rate = 36000kg / 6h = 6000kg / h

We define the input variable

- input flow (A) = 6000kg / h

-XgA = percentage of fat in A = 0.04

We define output variables.

- skim milk (B)

-creme (C)

-XgB = fat percentage at B = 0.0045

-XgC = percentage of fat in C = 0.45

Then we can start with the balance.

As a general rule, the mass balance is:

Input = Output

Balance sheet

1) A = B + C

Fat balance

2) A * XgA = B * XgB + C * XgC

Now we can solve.

We replace and clear B in equation 2

6000kg / h * 0.04 = B * 0.0045 + C * 0.45

B = (240kg / h) /0.045-C*0.45/0.0045

3) B = 53333.33kg / h-C * 100

We replace equation 3 in 1 and clear C

A = B + C

6000kg / h = 53333.33kg / h-C * 100 + C

C=(6000kg/h-53333.33kg/h)/(-99)

C=478.11kg/h

We replace C in equation 3 and calculate B

B = 53333.33kg / h-478.11kg/h * 100

B=5522.33kg/h

Then we have the values ​​of the outflows.

C=478.11kg/h

B=5522.33kg/h

How can a Hydrogen atom turn into a<br> Hydrogen ion (H+)?
Butoxors [25]

Answer:

By losing an electron

Explanation:

Electrons have a negative charge. So, losing one would give an element a more positive charge. You can usually find a hydrogen ion (H+) in substances like acids.

Given is the specific heat of water equal to 4.18 Joule per gram per *C.

This means to raise the temperature of 1 g of water by 1 degree Celsius we need 4.18 joule of energy.

Now, look at the question. We are asked that how much amount of energy would be required to raise the temperature of 25 g of water by (54-50) = 4 degree celsius.

To do so we have formula

Q = m C (temperature difference)
