Ferrous sulfate is added along with lime (CaO) to water to raise the pH and form ferric hydroxide particles to aid coagulation. Consider the reaction to be as follows: 2 FeSO4·7H2O + 2 CaO + 0.5 O2 → 2 Fe(OH)3(s) + 2 CaSO4 + 4 H2O The ferrous sulfate dose is 40 mg/L. THE MOST IMPORTANT PARTS TO ANSWER ARE b and d. Please explain clearly and show ALL working. Its very useful to help me understand the problem. THANKS!!!...

Q1) Natural gas liquids (NGL) are recovered from wet natural gas by cooling, which results in condensation of the higher molecular weight components. A raw natural gas has 92% methane, 4% ethane, 3% propane, 1% helium. NGL recovery condenses 89.4% of the propane and 5% of the ethane. What fraction of the natural gas (by mole) is recovered as NGL? Q2) To ensure a slow rate of drying and thereby prevent cracking of a dried product, an inlet relative humidity...

Estimate how many pennies it would take to stack them from the earth to the moon. Give your answer in 1000s of dollars. How much would all of these pennies weigh?  Give your answer in tons. Why did I ask you to estimate instead of giving an exact answer? Be sure to state your assumptions and define your estimations.  Include justification for these. Moon is about 238,900 miles (mi) away. Penny is 1.52 millimeters (mm) thick. There are 25.4 mm in an...

Estimate how many photons of yellow light (? = 559 nm) must be absorbed by 1.0 cm2 of human skin to raise the skin temperature 1.5° C. Assume that the photon energy is absorbed by 1.0 cm3 of tissue. As rough estimates of the tissue's density and specific heat, use the values for water. (The specific heat of water is 4186 J/kg–C°.)

A. How many commuters must be randomly selected to estimate the mean driving time of Chicago commuters? We want 90% confidence that the sample mean is within 4 minutes of the population mean, and the population standard deviation is known to be 12 minutes. B. The health of employees is monitored by periodically weighing them in. A sample of 54 employees has a mean weight of 183.9 lb. Assuming that σ is known to be 121.2 lb, create as 85%...
