Suppose you decide to define your own temperature scalewith units of O, using the freezing point 113 °C2 and boilingpoint 1360 °C2 of oleic acid, the main component of oliveoil. If you set the freezing point of oleic acid as 0 °O and theboiling point as 100 °O, what is the freezing point of wateron this new scale?

You are treating 10 million gallons per day (MGD) of water with alum at a dosage of 50.0 mg/L. Alum is available as a hydrated salt Al2(SO4)3.16H2O. Determine:(a) The monthly alum dosage required in metric tons/month (1 metric ton = 1000 kg)(b) If you assume that each equivalent of alum added to the water consumes 1 equivalent of alkalinity, determine the alkalinity consumed by alum addition in milliequivalents/L (meq/L)(c) Given that the raw water contained 30 mg/L as CaCO3 of alkalinity, is the alkalinity sufficient? What would happen if the alkalinity is inadequate?

Fluid Mechanics Last Fall, researchers using an unmanned submarine discovered a coral reef at the unprecenented depth of 1/2 mile. The density of seawater at the surface of the ocean is 1025kg/m3 and the bulk modulus of elasticty of seawater is 2.34*109 Pa. A volume of air is taken downward to the coral reef. Assuming an absolute air pressure at the ocean surface of 1 atm, and that the air taken to the reef behaves as an isothermal gas. Find the pressure of the air at that depth. Find the fractional change in denisity and volume of the air at that depth.
