A work-backwards-with-what-you're-given pH problem.104422

I've posted a few times before and have gotten really great results thanks to OTA #104422...but this one (and a bunch like it) are killing me slowly. I need to SEE how it's done. Calculate the pH of CO2-saturated water at 25 degrees C, given that the CO2 concentration in air is 320 and that for carbon dioxide the Henry's Law ...continues

Another work-backwards-to-get-the-answer problem?

**Assume that a waste contains 340.0 mg/L of biodegradable CH2O and is processed through a 200000.0 L/day sewage treatment plant which converts 40% of the waste to CO2 and H2O. Calculate the volume of air (at 25 degrees, 1 atm) required for this conversion. Assume that the O2 is transferred to the water with 20% efficiency**

I'm really lost, I'd like to see how its done, I have approx. 15 more to do.

What is the fraction of NTA present after HT2- has been brought to equilibrium with solid PbCO3 at pH 7.00, in a medium in which [HCO3-] = 2.00E-3 M?

Converting and calculating percentages . Again, I just need to see ONE of these (hopefully)!!

Assume that the wet limestone process requires 1 metric ton of calcium carbonate to remove + 85.0 % of the sulfur from 4 metric tons of coal containing + 10.0 % S Assume that the sulfur product is calcium sulfate. Calculate the percentage of the limestone converted to calcium sulfate.

Another work-backwards-to-get-the-answer problem - FOR OTA 104422

THIS IS FOR OTA 104422 (Note: This question was posted once already and the response received was incorrect. Thus, it is being reposted SPECIFICALLY for OTA 104422) The questions/assignments are coming faster than I can complete them! I'm going to try and post a series of questions that are NOT related in content (I'm hopi ...continues

Env. Chem ? re: masses, ppm, and room dimensions

The computer allows 12 tries on any question and I've already exhausted 3 tries. Can someone show this to me, step-by-step? I have only 4 others like it, but my math skills are holding me back.***** What mass of formaldehyde gas (in grams) must be released from building materials, carpets, etc. in order to produce a concentra ...continues

Bond energy

(5) The lowest energy photon which is able to split an oxygen molecule has a wavelength of 280.0 nm. Based on this, what is the bond energy of the oxygen molecule in kJ/mol?

These are killing me. #104422 has had the most luck, but I need help!! Anyone?

(7) The Arrhenius equation (see your introductory chemistry textbook) relates reaction rates to temperature via the activation energy. Calculate the ratio of the rates at -30 degrees C (a typical stratospheric temperature) for two biomolecular reactions having the same Arrhenius A factor and initial concentrations , one of which ...continues

For OTA #104422 or #103846

Please only respond if you are 100% sure as this question has already been posted once. (10) The threshold/NOEL level found for a particular chemical from animal studies is 0.003 mg/kg body weight per day. The only source for the chemical is freshwater fish, where it occurs at an average level of 0.2 ppm. What is the maximum ...continues

For a solution having 0.0009 equivalents/liter total alkalinity...percentage contribution to alkalinity from CO32...

Please only respond if you are 100% sure as this question has already been posted once. 12) (contributions from HCO3-, CO32, and OH-) at [H+] = 4.69E-11, what is the percentage contribution to alkalinity from CO32? PLEASE NOTE: This is the second time that this question has been posted as the first response received was ...continues
