Answer:

The ammonia is still in the gas phase

Explanation:

Given that 1 bar is approximately = 1 atm

From;

PV=nRT

P= 310 atm

V= the unknown

n= 1

R = 0.082atm LK-1mol-1

T = 92oC + 273 = 365 K

V= nRT/P

V= 1 * 0.082 * 365/310

V = 0.0965 L = 96.5 mL

molar mass of NH3 = 17 g/mol

Molar density of NH3 = 17g/ 96.5mL = 0.176g/mL

The ammonia is still in the gas phase

Which of the following is/are FALSE about refining aluminum from the ore state (mark all that apply) a)- A blast furnace is used

Anastasy [175]

Answer:

The options a)- A blast furnace is used and d)-Coke is used to produce the heat are FALSE.

Explanation:

Aluminium is a chemical element and the most abundant metal present in the Earth's crust. An aluminium ore is called bauxite. Aluminium is extracted from its ore by the process of electrolysis, called the Hall–Héroult process. The extraction of aluminium is an expensive process as it requires large amount of electricity. The bauxite is purified to produce aluminium oxide. Then, aluminium is extracted from the aluminium oxide.

<u>Therefore, the refining of aluminum from its ore does not involve the use of a blast furnace and coke to produce heat.</u>

Which of the following bonding is the strongest? (a) lonic bonding (b) Metallic bonding (c) Covalent bonding with some van der W

OLEGan [10]

Answer:

(a) lonic bonding

Explanation:

The Strongest chemical bond is the ionic bond ,

Because ionic bond is bound by strong electrostatic interactions ,

The ionic bond forms crystal lattice structure which are bounded by electrostatic interactions but the covalent bond is formed by the van der waal forces .

Hence , ionic bond is stronger than covalent bond .

A manometer is used to measure the air pressure in a tanlc The fluid used has a specific gravity of 1.25, and the differentialhe

Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

(a) 11.437 psia

(b) 13.963 psia

Explanation:

The pressure exerted by a fluid can be estimated by multiplying the density of the fluid, acceleration due to gravity and the depth of the fluid. To determine the fluid density, we have:

fluid density = specific gravity * density of water = 1.25 * 62.4 lbm/ft^3 = 78 lbm/ft^3

height = 28 in * (1 ft/12 in) = 2.33 ft

acceleration due to gravity = 32.174 ft/s^2

The change in pressure = fluid density*acceleration due to gravity*height = 78*32.174*(28/12) = 5855.668 lbm*ft/(s^2 * ft^2) = 5855.668 lbf/ft^2

The we convert from lbf/ft^2 to psi:

(5855.668/32.174)*0.00694 psi = 1.263 psi

(a) pressure = atmospheric pressure - change in pressure = 12.7 - 1.263 = 11.437 psia

(b) pressure = atmospheric pressure + change in pressure = 12.7 + 1.263 = 13.963 psia

120 litres of water is discharge from container in 25 seconds. Find the rate of discharge in cumecs.if the discharge took place

notsponge [240]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

Rate of discharge in cumecs: <u>0.0048m³/s</u>.

Velocity flow: <u>24m/s</u>.

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

<h3>1. Find the rate of discharge in cumecs.</h3>

a. Convert from litres to m³.
120L*1000= 120000mL

120000mL=120000cm³

120000cm³/100³=0.12 m³.

b. Rate of discharge.

<em>If 0.12 m³ where discharged in 25 seconds, the rate of discharge is:</em>

0.12m³/25s = 0.0048m³/s.

<em />

<h3>2. Find the velocity flow.</h3>

Let's refer to the fluid mechanics equation that relates volume flow, area and velocity. This is the formula:

$\frac{dV}{dt}=Av$ ; where the expression $\frac{dV}{dt}$ is the volume flow rate (in m³/s); A is the cross-sectional area of the pipe (in m²), and v is the velocity flow (in m/s).

a. Solve the equation for v.

$\frac{dV}{dt}=Av\\ \\(\frac{dV}{dt})/A=v\\ \\v=(\frac{dV}{dt})/A$

b. Calculate the cross-sectional area of the pipe.

<em>The cross-sectional area of the pipe is a circle. Hence, the formula of this area is:</em>

$A=\pi r^{2}$

<em>We'll have to convert the diameter to meters, because the formula for flow velocity needs the area in m². Let's go ahead and do that.</em>

<em /> $50mm/1000=0.05m$ .

<em>We were given the diameter, and the formula uses the radius, but the radius is just half of the diameter, therefore, we can substitute in toe formula like this:</em>

$A=\pi (\frac{0.05}{2} )^{2}=0.0020m^{2}$
