Wet sugar that contains one-fifth water by mass is conveyed through an evaporator in which 85.0% of the entering water is vaporized. Taking a basis of 100 kg feed, calculate (i) , the mass fraction of water in the wet sugar leaving the evaporator, and (ii) the ratio (kg H2O vaporized/kg wet sugar leaving the evaporator).

An aqueous solution of beryllium chloride BECl2 is made by dissolving 1.25g of BECl2 in sufficient water in a 200 ml volumetric flsk and then adding enough water to fill the flask to the mark exactly. What is the weight/volume percentage beryllium chloride in the sollution?
A 25mL volumetric pipet is used to deliver a sample of the stock solution marked “0.6000M X2SO4” into a 100mL volumetric flask. Distilled water is added to the flask until it is about 3/4thfull, the solution is mixed well, then more water is added to fill it up to the calibration mark, then it is mixed again. Calculate the concentration of X+ion in the dilute solution made above.
In the production of a bottled alcoholic mudslide, 3 ingredients are mixed together and bottled: Stream A: Vodka (41.17% ethanol, the balance is water) Stream B: Coffee liqueur (17.10% ethanol, 1% coffee solids, the balance is water) Stream C: Irish cream liqueur (17.82% ethanol, 21.05% sugar, 14.05% cream fat, the balance is water) The product needs to contain 24.49% ethanol and 6.48% sugar for it to qualify as a mudslide. If your target production is 328 kg/d, how much coffee liqueur is needed?
A polymer of large molar mass is dissolved in the organic solvent tetrahydrofuran (C4H8O) at 25 °C, and the resulting solution rises to a final height of 12.7 cm above the level of the pure solvent, as solvent molecules pass through a semipermeable membrane into the solution. If the solution contains 3.61 g polymer per liter, calculate the molar mass of the polymer. Take the density of the solution to be 0.886 g cm³³. g mol-1 Molar mass polymer =
A sulfuric acid spill occurred on the highway after a truck containing barrels of sulfuric acid swerved out of control from a truck tire blowout. Luckily no one got hurt in the event but there is a concern that the sulfuric acid spill may affect local ground water supply. A sample of the ground water in that area was recovered to assess the extent of contamination of the ground water supply. In order to determine the concentration of sulfuric acid in the sample, 25.00 mL of the ground water sample was titrated with 0.133 M NaOH and you get the following data: Sodium hydroxide (initial buret reading) 0.66 mL Sodium hydroxide (final buret reading) 17.42 mL Calculate the molarity of sulfuric acid in the ground water sample. Enter numerical answer. Report in 3 sig figs. Show work
A nitric acid solution is labelled 6.0% W/W nitric acid by mass. What mass, in kg, of pure solute is in 1.84 kg of nitric acid? To determine how much calcium chloride has been used, you take a sample of slush from the road to analyze.You collect the following data: Mass of empty container: 54.54 g Mass of container and sample of slush: 160.65 gThen, you evaporate the water from the solution and determine the mass of the residue to be 3.87 g. What is the percent by mass of CaCl2 in the slush that was collected?
A brine solution of salt flows at a constant rate of 4 L/min into a large tank that initially held 5 L of pure water. The solution inside the tank is kept well stirred and flows out of the tank at a rate of 2 L/min. If the concentration of salt in the brine entering the tank is 0.1 kg/L, determine (a) the mass and (b) the concentration of salt in the tank after 30 mins.
The parameters involved in the concept of dilution are the following: Volume of tank and brine. Volume of solution and brine. Discharge of salt and volume of brine. Discharge of brine in and out the tank.
A polymer of large molar mass is dissolved in the organic solvent m-cresol (C7H8O) at 25 °C, and the resulting solution rises to a final height of 13.4 cm above the level of the pure solvent, as solvent molecules pass through a semipermeable membrane into the solution. If the solution contains 5.24 g polymer per liter, calculate the molar mass of the polymer. Take the density of the solution to be 1.03 g cm-3.
