You are required to ‘design’ a fire that will burn for about 10 minutes with a heat output of approximately 750 kW. What diameter of tray, or pan, would you require to contain (a) ethanol and (b) heptane to achieve a fire with these characteristics? Assume that combustion is 100% efficient, and take the heat of combustion of heptane to be 45 MJ/kg. (Hint: first try estimating the tray diameter assuming the limiting rates of burning.)

Make a diagram of each case using root cause analysis Case #1: Gas tap without burner Two-way gas taps are commonly installed in school science laboratories. For one reason or another, not all gas taps are connected to Bunsen burners. In an attempt to light a Bunsen burner, a student mistakenly turned on the adjacent gas tap not connected to the burner. Gas emitted from the gas tap burst into flames. Fortunately, the student was able to turn off the...

Twenty-five percent of the victims of cigarette induced fires were not the smokers, and about 40% of cigarette-induced fires started in the bedroom.

Quantitative: In the 1950s liquid hydrogen was considered as a fuel for a new type of aircraft being developed, the SR-71 Blackbird (shown in Figure 1). Figure 1: The SR-71 Blackbird Early research on the project focused on which fuel to use for the Blackbird. Pratt & Whitney had a J-57 engine that was designed for kerosene and being considered for implementation on the Blackbird. The J-57 only took 5 months to convert to running on liquid hydrogen, however tests...

Experiment Write Up Proposal You will write up a synthesis procedure for one reaction that could be potentially run in a face- to-face Chem 2321 lab session. Your proposal will include an introduction and procedure. The procedure will include step-by-step instructions for running the reaction (including reaction monitoring), work-up. (product isolation and purification), and analysis (characterization). You will need to include sample calculations for percent yield and provide sample spectra analysis. You must upload your proposal as a single document...
