What are the flocculation basins?

Chemistry
2 answers:
Mila [183]2 years ago

Answer:

flocculation is the operation in which the coagulated water must be gently mixed at a propeller speed of 15 to 20 rpm to promote the growth of the floc. ... The flocculation basin often has a number of compartments with decreasing mixing speeds as the water advances through the basin.

For the following electron-transfer reaction:
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

1. The oxidation half-reaction is: Mn(s) ⇄ Mn²⁺(aq) + 2e⁻

2. The reduction half-reaction is: Ag⁺(aq) + 1e⁻ ⇄ Ag(s)  

Explanation:

Main reaction: 2Ag⁺(aq) + Mn(s) ⇄ 2Ag(s) + Mn²⁺(aq)

In the oxidation half reaction, the oxidation number increases:

Mn changes from 0, in the ground state to Mn²⁺.

The reduction half reaction occurs where the element decrease the oxidation number, because it is gaining electrons.

Silver changes from Ag⁺ to Ag.

1. The oxidation half-reaction is: Mn(s) ⇄ Mn²⁺(aq) + 2e⁻

2. The reduction half-reaction is: Ag⁺(aq) + 1e⁻ ⇄ Ag(s)  

To balance the hole reaction, we need to multiply by 2, the second half reaction:

Mn(s) ⇄ Mn²⁺(aq) + 2e⁻

(Ag⁺(aq) + 1e⁻ ⇄ Ag(s)) . 2

2Ag⁺(aq) + 2e⁻ ⇄ 2Ag(s)  

Now we sum, and we can cancel the electrons:

2Ag⁺(aq) + Mn(s) + 2e⁻ ⇄ 2Ag(s) + Mn²⁺(aq) + 2e⁻

4.00 moles of CU(CN)2<br><br>Find the number of grams ​
UNO [17]

Hey there!

Cu(CN)₂

Find the molar mass.

Cu: 1 x 63.546 = 63.546

C: 2 x 12.01 = 24.02

N: 2 x 14.07 = 28.14

-----------------------------------

                      115.706 grams

The mass of one mole of Cu(CN)₂ is 115.706 grams.

We have 4 moles.

115.706 x 4 = 463

4.00 moles of Cu(CN)₂ has a mass of 463 grams.

Hope this helps!

What has the lowest ionization erergy?
Svetach [21]

Answer:

Francium (Fr)

Explanation:

From the given choices, francium will have the lowest ionization energy.

Ionization energy is the energy required to remove the most loosely held electron within an atom.

The magnitude of the ionization energy depends on the characteristics of the atom in relation to its nuclear charge, atomic radius, stability etc.

  • Generally on the periodic table, ionization energy increases from left to right on the table
  • As you go from metals to non-metals and to gases, the value of the ionization energy increases steadily.
  • Down the group, the value reduces.
  • Since Francium is the most metallic of all the given choices, it has the highest ionization energy.

In 1939, the use of DDT (a powerful synthetic chemical) as an insecticide was discovered. The United States adopted its widespre
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Main advantages of DDT are the insecticide property and the knoledge about its chemical synthesis.

Explanation:

At that time in 1939 it was discovered that DDT have insecticide properties. It is a useful property because it allows inhibition of insects populations in large areas. Killing insects will reduce the diseases transmitted by them as  typhus and malaria. More over you prevent the destruction of the agricultural crops by the harmful insects.

However the synthesis of the molecule was known way back in 1874. From that time it was plenty of time in which chemistry knowledge evolved so the synthesis at kilograms scale was implemented. High quantities of DDT molecule become available for the market so that in 1945 was available as agricultural insecticide.

It was discovered that DDT have bad effects for human health and also over time some insects developed resistance and their were not affected anymore by the molecule.

You may find the chemical structure of DDT in the attached figure.
