Yazid wants to make compost from leaves, sawdust, and food scraps. Leaves have 2% N, C:N 22.5, and MC 77%. Sawdust has 30% C, C:N 300, and MC 20%, whereas food scraps have 2% N, C:N 20, and 50% MC. If the amount of leaves used is 15 kg, determine how much food scraps and sawdust should be added to get a compost mixture with an ideal ratio of C:N 30:1 and moisture content 60%?

- The acidity or alkalinity of a solution is defined by pH = –log[H+] where [H+] is the hydrogen ion concentration, measured in moles per liter. Solutions with a pH value of less than 7 are acidic; solutions with a pH value of greater than 7 are basic and solutions with a pH of 7 (such as pure water) are neutral. a) Suppose that you test apple juice and find that the hydrogen ion concentration is [H+] = 0.0003. Find the pH value and determine whether the juice is basic or acidic.arrow_forwardHydrogen sulfide is an impurity in natural gas that must beremoved.
