Answer:

False?

Explanation:

This is an odd question, but it sounds like it would be part of a safety quiz.

Basically stating that "safety is all about trying to create hazards"

which would be False.

A 15.00 mL sample of a solution of H2SO4 of unknown concentration was titrated with 0.3200M NaOH. the titration required 21.30 m

natima [27]

Answer:

a. 0.4544 N

b. $5.112 \times 10^{-5 M}$

Explanation:

For computing the normality and molarity of the acid solution first we need to do the following calculations

The balanced reaction

$H_2SO_4 + 2NaOH = Na_2SO_4 + 2H_2O$

$NaOH\ Mass = Normality \times equivalent\ weight \times\ volume$

$= 0.3200 \times 40 g \times 21.30 mL \times 1L/1000mL$

= 0.27264 g

$NaOH\ mass = \frac{mass}{molecular\ weight}$

$= \frac{0.27264\ g}{40g/mol}$

= 0.006816 mol

Now

Moles of $H_2SO_4$ needed is

$= \frac{0.006816}{2}$

= 0.003408 mol

$Mass\ of\ H_2SO_4 = moles \times molecular\ weight$

$= 0.003408\ mol \times 98g/mol$

= 0.333984 g

Now based on the above calculation

a. Normality of acid is

$= \frac{acid\ mass}{equivalent\ weight \times volume}$

$= \frac{0.333984 g}{49 \times 0.015}$

= 0.4544 N

b. And, the acid solution molarity is

$= \frac{moles}{Volume}$

$= \frac{0.003408 mol}{15\ mL \times 1L/1000\ mL}$

= 0.00005112

= $5.112 \times 10^{-5 M}$

We simply applied the above formulas

Which sentence is correct about the exergy of an empty (pressure around zero Pascal) tank with a volume of V, located in an envi

sineoko [7]

Answer:

The correct option is;

c. the exergy of the tank can be anything between zero to P₀·V

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The volume of the tank = V

The pressure in the tank = 0 Pascal

The pressure of the surrounding = P₀

The temperature of the surrounding = T₀

Exergy is a measure of the amount of a given energy which a system posses that is extractable to provide useful work. It is possible work that brings about equilibrium. It is the potential the system has to bring about change

The exergy balance equation is given as follows;

$X_2 - X_1 = \int\limits^2_1 {} \, \delta Q \left (1 - \dfrac{T_0}{T} \right ) - [W - P_0 \cdot (V_2 - V_1)]- X_{destroyed}$

Where;

X₂ - X₁ is the difference between the two exergies

Therefore, the exergy of the system with regards to the environment is the work received from the environment which at is equal to done on the system by the surrounding which by equilibrium for an empty tank with 0 pressure is equal to the product of the pressure of the surrounding and the volume of the empty tank or P₀ × V less the work, exergy destroyed, while taking into consideration the change in heat of the system

Therefore, the exergy of the tank can be anything between zero to P₀·V.

An equal-tangent sag vertical curve (with a negative initial and a positive final grade) is designed for 55 mi/h. The PVI is at

Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

The lowest point of the curve is at 239+42.5 ft where elevation is 124.16 ft.

Explanation:

Length of curve is given as

$L=2(PVT-PVI)\\L=2(242+30-240+00)\\L=2(230)\\L=460 ft$

$G_2$ is given as

$G_2=\frac{E_{PVT}-E_{PVI}}{0.5L}\\G_2=\frac{127.5-122}{0.5*460}\\G_2=0.025=2.5 \%$

The K value is given from the table 3.3 for 55 mi/hr is 115. So the value of A is given as

$A=\frac{L}{K}\\A=\frac{460}{115}\\A=4$

A is given as

$-G_1=A-G_2\\-G_1=4.0-2.5\\-G_1=1.5\\G_1=-1.5\%$

With initial grade, the elevation of PVC is

$E_{PVC}=E_{PVI}+G_1(L/2)\\E_{PVC}=122+1.5%(460/2)\\E_{PVC}=125.45 ft\\$

The station is given as

$St_{PVC}=St_{PVI}-(L/2)\\St_{PVC}=24000-(230)\\St_{PVC}=237+70\\$

Low point is given as

$x=K \times |G_1|\\x=115 \times 1.5\\x=172.5 ft$

The station of low point is given as

$St_{low}=St_{PVC}-(x)\\St_{low}=23770+(172.5)\\St_{low}=239+42.5 ft\\$

The elevation is given as

$E_{low}=\frac{G_2-G_1}{2L} x^2+G_1x+E_{PVC}\\E_{low}=\frac{2.5-(-1.5)}{2*460} (1.72)^2+(-1.5)*(1.72)+125.45\\E_{low}=124.16 ft$

So the lowest point of the curve is at 239+42.5 ft where elevation is 124.16 ft.
