2. You want to produce 70%(v/lv) rubbing alcohol in the laboratory. You poured
20L of distillate having a 99% (v/v) concentration into a barrel. You open the
valve such that the solution exits the barrel at 10mL/sec into another container
which is empty. Simultaneously, you pour distilled water into the barrel at a
flowrate of 30mL/sec. After achieving the desired concentration, what is the
concentration in percent by volume of the alcohol in the second container?
1. Suppose identical solid spheres are distributed through space in such a way that their
centers are lie on the points of a lattice, and spheres on neighboring points just touch
without overlapping. (Such an arrangement of spheres is called a close-packing
arrangement.) Assuming that the spheres have unit density, show that the density of a
set of close-packed spheres on each of the four structures (the "packing fraction") is:

The maize is under “Fall Army Worm” attack. The farmer has to urgently control the attack using a chemical called AGENOX 221. Motorized sprayers with tank capacities of 15 litres each are to be used. The recommended concentration of the chemical is 2 ml/L and each full tank will cover ½ hectare. A 50-man team is engaged to control the attack. Using the above information and the assumptions given below: i. What volume of the chemical is required to cover the entire field to control the “Fall Army Worm” attack? ii. If each man covers an area of 25 m2 from one end of the field to the other, how many trips will each of them make to cover the entire field? Assume ach man moves in a straight line. Assumptions: 1. The 10 ha farm is considered to be a perfect square. 2. There is a 2.5 % loss of chemical due to the transfer to the sprayer tank.arrow_forward
