a) m = 2398256.64 Ib/hr

b) Q = 38433.6 ft^3/hr

c) J = = 898560 lb/h-ft2

Explanation:

a) To get the mass flow rate in lb/h we are going to use this formula:

m = ρνA

note: we have to change some units to reach to the final units

when m is the mass flow rate which we need to calculate

ρ is the density of water in lb/ft3 = 62.4 lbs/ft3 it is a constant numbers you can get it from anywhere

ν is the velocity of the water = 4 ft/s we need to change it to ft/h unit so

when 1 ft/s = 3600 ft/hr (note : 3600 is a result of converting hr to sec 60min*60sec)

so the velocity of the water = 4 ft/s * 3600 ft/hr= 14400 ft/hr

now , we need to get the area of the pipe in feet also when:

A = π*diameter * length

diameter = 3.068 inches

when 1 inch = 0.0833333333 feet so,

diameter in feet = 3.068 * 0.0833333333 =.300 0.2557ft

and length = 40 * 0.0833333333 = 3.333 ft

so the area of the pipe in feet^2 = 3.14*0.255*3.33 =2.669 ft^2

by substitution in the mass flow rate:

m = 62.4 lbs/ft3 * 14400 ft/hr *2.669 ft^2 = 2398256.64 Ib/hr

b) now to calculate volumetric flow rate in ft /h we are going to use this formula:

Q = AV

when Q is the volume flow rate

A is the cross-sectional area filled by water =2.669 ft^2

V is the average velocity of the water = 14400 ft/hr

so , by substitution:

Q = 2.669 ft^2* 14400 ft/hr= 38433.6 ft^3/hr

C) To calculate mass velocity (mass flux) in lb/h-ft we are going to use this formula:

J = m / A

when J is the mass flux

and m is the mass flow rate which we calculated above = 2398256.64 Ib/hr

and A is the cross section area of the pipe which we calculated above and = 2.669 ft^2

so, by substitution:

J = 2398256.64 Ib/hr / 2.669 ft^2

= 898560 lb/h-ft2

Nconcentration refers to the molar concentration of an ion in solution. it may be identical to, or greater or less than, the molar concentration of the compound containing the ion that was used to make the solution. for soluble salts, the molarity of a particular ion is equal to the molarity of that compound times the subscript for that ion. for example, 1 m of alcl3 is 1 m in al3+ and 3 m in cl−. 1 m of (nh4)2so4 is 2 m in nh4+ and 1 m in so42−. part a what is the concentration of k+ in 0.15 m of k2s? view available hint(s) nothing m m part b if cacl2 is dissolved in water, what can be said about the concentration of the ca2+ ion? view available hint(s) if is dissolved in water, what can be said about the concentration of the ion? it has the same concentration as the cl− ion. its concentration is half that of the cl− ion. its concentration is twice that of the cl− ion. its concentration is one-third that of the cl− ion. part c a scientist wants to make a solution of tribasic sodium phosphate, na3po4, for a laboratory experiment. how many grams of na3po4 will be needed to produce 550 ml of a solution that has a concentration of na+ ions of 0.700 m ? express your answer numerically in grams. view available hint(s) mass of na3po4 n a 3 p o 4 = nothing g provide feedback
