High levels of Pb+2 ions made Flint's water corrosive. Suppose Flint has 100 milligrams of Pb+2 ions per fluid ounce of water. If you were to drink eight cups of Flint's water in one day, how many grams of Pb+2 ions would you consume? (One cup = 0.237 liters. Density of water = 1000g/L. 1 fluid ounces = 29.574 mililiters) Please help me solve this problem.

Consider a combined gas-steam power cycle. The topping cycle is a simple Brayton cycle that has a pressure ratio of 7. Air enters the compressor at 15 ºC at a rate of 10 kg/s and the gas turbine at 950 ºC. The bottoming cycle is a reheat Rankine cycle between the pressure limits of 6 MPa and 10 kPa. Steam is heated in a heat exchanger at a rate of 1.15 kg/s by the exhaust gases leaving the gas turbine,...
