Problem 2. A sample of water is to be analyzed for solids content. Ten liters of...
Problem #2 A 100-mL water sample is collected from the activated sludge process of municipal wastewater treatment. The sample is placed in a drying dish (weight-0.5000 g before the sample is added), and then placed in an oven at 104°C until all the moisture is evaporated. The weight of the dried dish is recorded as 0.5625 g. A similar 100-mL sample is filtered and the 100-mL liquid sample that passes through the filter is collected and placed in another drying...
Example 8.8 Quantitative Calculations . A 200.0 mL sample of water was filtered through a preweighed glass fiber filter. After drying to constant weight at 105°C, the filter was found to have increased in mass by 48.2mg. Determine the total suspended solids for the sample in parts per million
4- Certain solid substances, known as hydrated compounds, have well-defined molecular ratios of water to some other species. For example, calcium sulfate dihydrate (commonly known as gypsum, CaSO4 2H30), has 2 moles of water per mole of calcium sulfate; alternatively, it may be said that I mole of gypsum consists of 1 mole of calcium sulfate and 2 moles of water. The water in such substances is called water of hydration. In order to eliminate the discharge of sulfuric acid...
