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.

A 25.0 mL aliquot of 0.0680 M EDTA was added to a 59.0 mL solution containing an unknown concentration of V3 . All of the V3 pre

givi [52]

Answer:

$\mathbf{0.02 M}$

Explanation:

$\text{So, from the given question:}$

$\text{EDTA will make complex with}$ $V^{+3}$ $\text{and the remaining EDTA will react with }$ $Ga^{+3}$

$\text{Hence, the total concentration of}$ $V^{+3}$ & $Ga^{+3}$ $\text{will be equivalent to EDTA concentration.}$

$V_{EDTA} = 25 \ mL$

$V_{V^{+3}} = 59.0 \ mL$

$V_{Ga^{+3}} = 13.0 \ mL$

$M_{EDTA} = 0.0680 \ M$

$M_{V^{+3}} = ???(unknown)$

$M_{Ga^{+3}} = 0.0400 \ M$

$V^{+3} + EDTA \to V[EDTA] + EDTA(Excess) \to^{CoA} \ Ga[EDTA] _{complex}$

$M_{EDTA} \times V_{EDTA} = ( V_{V^+3}\times M_{V^{+3}}+ V_{Ga^{+3} }\times M_{Ga^{+3}}})$

$0.0680 \times 25 = (59\times x + 13 \times 0.040) \\ \\ 1.7 = 59x + 0.52\\ \\ 1.7 - 0.52 = 59x \\ \\ 59x = 1.18$

$x = \dfrac{1.18}{59}$

$\mathbf{x =0.02 \ M }$

Uhm cell parts and functions

sergiy2304 [10]

A cell is the structural and fundamental unit of life. The study of cells from its basic structure to the functions of every cell organelle is called Cell Biology. Robert Hooke was the first Biologist who discovered cells

two types of cell

1) Prokaryotes

2) Eukaryotes

Characteristics of Cells

1) Cells provide structure and support to the body of an organism.

2) The cell interior is organised into different individual organelles surrounded by a separate membrane.

3) The nucleus (major organelle) holds genetic information necessary for reproduction and cell growth

DIRECTIONS: Use the Word Bank to answer the questions below. For questions 2 and 3 circle the correct choice.

Angelina_Jolie [31]

Explanation:

1. Electrons surround the nucleus in defined regions called orbits.

2. The shells further away from the nucleus are larger and can hold more electrons.

3. The shells closer to the nucleus are smaller and can hold less electrons.

4. The closest shell (closest to the nucleus) can hold a maximum of two electrons.

5. Once the first shell is full, the second shell begins to fill. It can hold a maximum of eight electrons.

6. Once the second shell is full, the third shell begins to fill.

7. Once the third shell contains Eighteen electrons, the fourth shell begins to fill.

8. The arrangement of electrons in shells around the nucleus is referred to as an atom's electronic configuration.
