A river with a flow of 50 m3/s discharges into a lake with a volume of 15,000,000 m3. The river has a background pollutant conce

spin [16.1K]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

Volume of lake = $15 \times 10^{6} m^{3}$ = $15 \times 10^{6} m^{3} \times \frac{10^{3} liter}{1 m^{3}}$

Concentration of lake = 5.6 mg/l

Total amount of pollutant present in lake = $5.6 \times 15 \times 10^{9} mg$

= $84 \times 10^{9}$ mg

= $84 \times 10^{3}$ kg

Flow rate of river is 50 $m^{3} sec^{-1}$

Volume of water in 1 day = $50 \times 10^{3} \times 86400 liter$

= $432 \times 10^{7}$ liter

Concentration of river is calculated as 5.6 mg/l. Total amount of pollutants present in the lake are $2.9792 \times 10^{10} mg$ or $2.9792 \times 10^{4} kg$

Flow rate of sewage = $0.7 m^{3} sec^{-1}$

Volume of sewage water in 1 day = $6048 \times 10^{4}$ liter

Concentration of sewage = 300 mg/L

Total amount of pollutants = $1.8144 \times 10^{10} mg$ or $1.8144 \times 10^{4}kg$

Therefore, total concentration of lake after 1 day = $\frac{131936 \times 10^{6}}{1.938 \times 10^{10}}mg/ l$

= 6.8078 mg/l

$k_{D}$ = 0.2 per day

$L_{o}$ = 6.8078

Hence, $L_{liquid}$ = $L_{o}(1 - e^{-k_{D}t}$

$L_{liquid}$ = $6.8078 (1 - e^{-0.2 \times 1})$

= 1.234 mg/l

Hence, the remaining concentration = (6.8078 - 1.234) mg/l

= 5.6 mg/l

Thus, we can conclude that concentration leaving the lake one day after the pollutant is added is 5.6 mg/l.

Identify the neutral element represented by this excited-state electron configuration, then write the ground-state electron conf

sineoko [7]

Answer:

1s² 2s² 2p³

Nitrogen

Explanation:

Excited state configuration: 1s² 2s² 2p² 3s¹

Unknown:

Ground state configuration = ?

Element symbol = ?

Solution:

Let us start by understanding what a ground state configuration entails:

A ground state configuration shows the lowest allowed energy levels of an atom. The excited state denotes when electrons have moved to higher energy levels away from their ground state.

The superscript in the configuration depicts the number of electrons in each of the sublevels.

We can use this number to identify the atom we are dealing with:

Total number of electrons = 2 + 2 + 2 + 1 = 7 electrons

The element with 7 electrons on the periodic table is Nitrogen.

Now, the ground state configuration:

In writing the electronic configuration of an atom, certain rules must be complied with.

Aufbau's principle states that the sublevels with lower energies are filled up before those with higher energies. The order of filling is:

1s 2s 2p 3s 3p 4s etc

To fill the s-orbital = 2 electrons

p-orbital = 6 electrons

The outermost shell electrons are usually the ones excited.

Now, the 3s¹ shell is an excited one taking 1 electron from the second energy level;

The ground state configuration is 1s² 2s² 2p³
