Answer:

- the capacity of the pump reduces by 35%.

- the head gets reduced by 57%.

the power consumption by the pump is reduced by 72%

Explanation:

the pump capacity is related to the speed as speed is reduces by 35%

so new speed is (100 - 35) = 65% of orginal speed

speed Q ∝ N ⇒ Q1/Q2 = N1/N2

Q2 = (N2/N1)Q1    

Q2 = (65/100)Q1

which means that the capacity of the pump is also reduces by 35%.

the head in a pump is related by

H ∝ N² ⇒ H1/H2 = N1²/N2²

H2 = (N2N1)²H1

H2 = (65/100)²H1 = 0.4225H1

so the head gets reduced by 1 - 0.4225 = 0.5775 which is 57%.

Now The power requirement of a pump is related as

P ∝ N³ ⇒ P1/P2 = N1³/N2³

P2 = (N2/N1)³P1

H2 = (65/100)²P1 = 0.274P1

So the reduction in power is 1 - 0.274 = 0.725 which is 72%

Therefore for a reduction of 35% of speed there is a reduction of 72% of the power consumption by the pump.

Using the results of the Arrhenius analysis (Ea=93.1kJ/molEa=93.1kJ/mol and A=4.36×1011M⋅s−1A=4.36×1011M⋅s−1), predict the rate
uysha [10]

Answer:

k = 4.21 * 10⁻³(L/(mol.s))

Explanation:

We know that

k = Ae^{-E/RT} ------------------- euqation (1)

K= rate constant;

A = frequency factor = 4.36 10^11 M⁻¹s⁻¹;

E = activation energy = 93.1kJ/mol;

R= ideal gas constant = 8.314 J/mol.K;

T= temperature = 332 K;

Put values in equation 1.

k = 4.36*10¹¹(M⁻¹s⁻¹)e^{[(-93.1*10^3)(J/mol)]/[(8.314)(J/mol.K)(332K)}

k = 4.2154 * 10⁻³(M⁻¹s⁻¹)

here M =mol/L

k = 4.21 * 10⁻³((mol/L)⁻¹s⁻¹)

 or

k = 4.21 * 10⁻³((L/mol)s⁻¹)

or

k = 4.21 * 10⁻³(L/(mol.s))
