7. Scrubbers are a type of pollution control technology installed on industry smokestacks to capture sulfur dioxide before it is emitted to the atmosphere. Once collected, the sulfur dioxio can be used to manufacture sulfuric acid, which can be sold to other companies that make detergents. Explain how the use of scrubber technology benefits both industry and the environment.

An aqueous waste stream that has a maximum concentrationof 0.50 M H₂SO₄ (d=1.030 g/mL at 25C) will be neutralized by controlled addition of 40% caustic soda (NaOH; d=1.430 g/L) before it goes to the process sewer and then to the chemical plant waste treatment facility. However, a safety re-view finds that the waste stream could meet a small stream of animmiscible organic compound, which could form a flammable vapor in air at 40.°C. The maximum temperature of the causticsoda and the waste stream is 31°C. Could the temperature in-crease due to the heat of neutralization cause the vapor to ex-plode? Assume the specific heat capacity of each solution is 4.184 J/gK.

Many rivers are affectwd by illegal small scale mining. Study have revealed extremlly high deposite of heavy metals and particulate matters in rivers, making them unwholesome for drinking. With your knowledge in analytical seperation and analysis, .outline a suitable analytical protocol that can be employed to recover polluted water bodies and make them wholesome for drinking.
One way to determine the hardness of a water sample is to precipitate the calcium out of solution as a carbonate. The net ionic reaction for this precipitation is: Ca2+(aq) + CO32-(aq) → CaCO3 (s) A 1.00 L sample of water is drawn from a Phoenix, AZ well and 0.534 g of calcium carbonate is recovered using the above reaction. What was the Ca2+ concentration of the original water sample in ppm? Show your work and include units. Hint: ppm stands for parts per million, and in the case of an aqueous solution, this is equivalent to mg/L.
Combustible vapor-air mixtures are flammable over a limitedrange of concentrations. The minimum volume % of vapor thatgives a combustible mixture is called the lower flammable limit(LFL). Generally, the LFL is about half the stoichiometric mix-ture, the concentration required for complete combustion of thevapor in air. (a) If oxygen is 20.9 vol % of air, estimate the LFL forn-hexane, C₆H₁₄. (b) What volume (in mL) of n-hexane (d=0.660 g/cm³) is required to produce a flammable mixture of hexane in 1.000 m³of air at STP?

Sulfur dioxide emissions from coal-based power plants areremoved by flue-gas desulfurization.The flue gas passes through a scrubber, and a slurry of wet calcium carbonate reacts with it toform carbon dioxide and calcium sulfite. The calcium sulfite then reacts with oxygen to form calcium sulfate, which is sold as gypsum. (a) If the sulfur dioxide concentration is 1000 times higher than its mole fraction in clean dry air (21010), how much calcium sulfate (kg) can be made from scrubbing 4 GL of flue gas (1 GL1X10^9L)? A state-of-the-art scrubber removes at least 95% of the sulfur dioxide. (b) If the mole fraction of oxy-gen in air is 0.209, what volume (L) of air at 1.00 atm and 25°C is needed to react with all the calcium sulfite?
A circular lake of diameter 2.5m is receiving wastewater with a flow rate of 25 L/sec from a village has phosphorus concentration of 0.5 mg/L. The lake receives Phosphorus point source concentration of 0.8 g/sec. If the wastewater is completely mixed in the pond and removes phosphorus with a removal rate of 12 m/year, find the concentration of phosphorus (mg/L) in effluent water stream? Assume steady state. (Round-off to one decimal place).
