Twenty-seven pounds (27 lb) of chlorine gas is used for treating 750,000 gal of water each day. The chlorine used up by the micr

oorganisms in the water is measured to be 2.6 mg/L. What is the residual (excess) chlorine concentration in the treated water?

Answer:

The correct answer is 1.778 milligrams per liter.

Explanation:

Based on the given information, the concentration of chlorine gas given is 27 pounds or 27*453.59 = 12327.93 grams.

The quantity of water given is 750000 gallons or 750000 * 3.754 = 2815500 L

The concentration of chlorine used up by the microorganism is 2.6 mg/L or 0.0026 gm/L.

Thus, for 2815500 L of water, the amount of chlorine used is,

= 2815500 * 0.0026

= 7320.3 grams

The left quantity of chlorine is 12327.93 - 7320.3 = 5007.63 grams

The concentration of residual chlorine is,

= 5007.63 g/2815500 = 0.00177859 or 1.778 mg/L.

How many moles are found in 10.5 g of Pb?
deff fn [24]

Answer:

Number of moles = 0.05 mol

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of Pb = 10.5 g

Number of moles of Pb = ?

Solution:

Formula:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Molar mass of Pb is 207.2 g/mol.

Now we will put the values in formula.

Number of moles = 10.5 g/207.2 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.05 mol

The weight of a sack potato in india is 50kgf. will the weight increase or decrease in bhutan. why​
AfilCa [17]

Answer:

Assume that the sack was initially close to the sea level. Its weight will increase even though its mass stays the same.

Explanation:

The weight of an object typically refers to the size of the planet's gravitational attraction (a force) on this object. That's not the same as the mass of the object. The weight of an object at a position depends on the size of the gravitational field there; on the other hand, the mass of the object is supposed to be same regardless of the location- as long as the object stays intact.

Let g denote the strength of the gravitational field at a certain point. If the mass of an object is m, its weight at that point will be m \cdot g.

Indeed, g \approx 9.81\; \rm N \cdot kg^{-1} on many places of the earth. However, this value is accurate only near the sea level. The equation for universal gravitation is a more general way for finding the strength of the gravitational field at an arbitrary height. Let G denote the constant of universal gravitation, and let M denote the mass of the earth. At a distance r from the center of the earth (where

\displaystyle g \approx \frac{G \cdot M}{r^2}.

The elevation of many places in Bhutan are significantly higher than that of many places in India. Therefore, a sack of potato in Bhutan will likely be further away from the center of the earth (larger r) compared to a sack of potato in India.

Note, that in the approximation, the value of g is (approximately, because the earth isn't perfectly spherical) inversely proportional to the distance from the center of the planet. The gravitational field strength

On the other hand, the weight of an object of fixed mass is proportional to the gravitational field strength. Therefore, the same bag of potatoes will have a smaller weight at most places in Bhutan compared to most places in India.

How many atoms of Na are in 1.89 mol of Na?
atroni [7]

Answer:

1.138158E24 atoms or 1.14 x 10^24 atoms

Explanation:

To find atoms/particles from moles you just want to convert using avogadro's number which is 6.022 x 10^23

1.89 mol x 6.022 • 10^23

———— = 1.138158E24 atoms

1 mol

so 1.138158E24 atoms or 1.14 x 10^24 for scientific notation

hope this helps :)
