2. The suspended solids content is determined by filtering a portion of the sample through a glass-fiber filter disk, drying the disk at 105°C, and igniting the residue by placing the dried sample in a muffle furnace at static (?). The following masses are recorded: • Volume of sample: 30 mL • Mass of filter disk: 0.1170 g a) The total suspended solids content is: b) The volatile suspended solids content is: Mass of disk and dry solids: 0.1278 g Mass of disk and ignited solids: 0.12489 g c) The fixed suspended solids content is:

Expert Solution
Step 1: Data given:

The volume of the sample, V = 30 mL

mass of filter dish, straight w subscript 1 equals 0.1170 space straight g

mass of dish+ dry solid, w subscript 2 equals 0.1278 space g

mass of sish+ ignited solid, straight w subscript 3 equals 0.1248 space straight g

To find:

a) Total suspended solids

b) Volatile suspended solids

c) Fixed suspended solids
