In the following question, sentences of a paragraph have been jumbled and labelled as A, B, C, and D. You are required to rearrange the jumbled sentences of the paragraph and mark your response accordingly by selecting the correct option. A: Various governments have made efforts since the 1970s to reduce the release of sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide into the atmosphere with positive results. B: Acid rain is caused by emissions of sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide, which react with the water molecules in the atmosphere to produce acids. C: It can have harmful effects on plants, aquatic animals, and infrastructure. D: Acid rain is a rain or any other form of precipitation that is unusually acidic, meaning that it has elevated levels of hydrogen ions.
In the following question, the 1st and the last part of the sentence/ passage are numbered 1 and 6. The rest of the sentence/passage is split into four parts and named P, Q, R and S. These four parts are not given in their proper order. Read the sentence/passage and find out which of the four combinations is correct. 1. Global warming is the rise in average surface temperature of the earth globally. P. It is caused by the greenhouse effect of increased level of greenhouse gases. Q. Deforestation also increases carbon dioxide emissions. R. Greenhouse gases include carbon dioxide, CFCs, etc. S. The increasing use of fossil fuels is a major cause of carbon dioxide emission. 6. Carbon dioxide traps heat and causes the greenhouse effect.
In the carbonation of a soft drink, the total quantity of carbon dioxide required is the equivalent of 3 volumes of gas to one volume of water at 0⁰C and atmospheric pressure. Calculate (i) the mass fraction and (ii) the mole fraction of the CO2 in the drink, ignoring all components other than CO2 and water. Basis 1 m3 of water = 1000 kg Volume of carbon dioxide added = 3 m3 From the gas equation, pV = nRT 1 x 3 = n x 0.08206 x 273 n = 0.134 mole. Molecular weight of carbon dioxide = 44 And so weight of carbon dioxide added = 0.134 x 44 = 5.9 kg

Acid rain is any form of precipitation with high levels of nitric and sulfuric acids. It can also occurs in the form of snow,fog and tiny bits of dry materials that settle on the ground. rotting vegetation and erupting volcanoes release some chemicals that causes acid rain but majority is because of the human activities such as burning of fossil fuels, factories and auto mobiles. Acid rain has many ecological effects, few of which are given below. Which of the following, if true, would weaken the conclusion about the effects of acid rain on the environment?

In a batch process, the reaction takes place in the presence of an acid medium. The acid is drained from the reaction vessel at the rate of 15ml/s as a result of the density difference of the acid from the reacting component. To avoid wastage of acid, it is recycled to an acid tank which has 1000 L capacity. The acid drained from the reaction vessel, picks up 50 g/L solids from the reactor. Acid is fed once again to the process from acid tank. When the process is started, the acid is almost pure in the tank as a result of filtration. As the reaction proceeds, acid in the tank gets more and more contaminated with the solids. The concentration of the solids should not exceed 100 g/L from the process point of view. The batch time is 16h. Estimate whether the concentration of the solids will exceed 100g/L during the batch reaction.
Solution-1 containing 30% acetic acid and 20% nitrogen at the rate F combines with Solution-2 containing 20% acetic acid and 10% nitrogen at the rate D and Solution-3 containing 10% acetic acid and 30% nitrogen at the rate N the product formed contains 20% acetic acid at the rate P, what is the percentage of nitrogen in product?
