Assignment 2

Q1. Calculate temporary, permanent and total hardness of water sample that is analysed as:
Mg(HCO3)2= 7.3 mg/L, : Ca(HCO3)2= 16.2 mg/L, MgCl2= 9.5 mg/L and CaSO4= 13.6 mg/L.
Q2. The hardness of 50000 litre of a sample was removed by passing it through a zeolite
softener. The softener then required 200 litre of NaCl solution, containing 125 g/litre of
NaCl for regeneration. Calculate the hardness of the sample of water.

Q3. On burning 0.83 g of a fuel in a bomb calorimeter, temperature of 3500 g of water increased
from 26.5 to 29.2 oC. Water equivalent of calorimeter and Latent heat of water are 385 g and
587 cal/g respectively. If the fuel contains 0.7% hydrogen, calculate its gross and net
calorific value.

Q4. A sample of coal contains C= 93%, H=6%, ash= 1%. The following data was obtained when
the above coal was tested in bomb calorimeter: wt. of coal burnt= 0.92 g, wt. of water
taken= 2200 g, water equivalent of bomb calorimeter= 550 g, rise in temp= 2.42 ° C, Fuse
wire correction= 10.0 cal, acid correction= 50.0 cal. Calculate gross and net calorific value
of coal, assuming the latent heat of condensation of steam as 580 cal/g.

Q5. What is the composition of bio-gas? Discuss the Process of formation of bio-gas.
