EXAMPLE: Waterworks of a town treat 35 x 106 litres/day. The water is treated by coagulation-sedimentation tanks. The quantity of filter alum is consumed at 20 mg/litres of water. If the alkalinity of the raw water is equivalent to 4.5 mg/litre of CaCO3, determine the quantity of filter alum and the quick lime (containing 80% of CaO) required per month by the water works. Molecular weights are given as [Ca = 40, C = 12, S = 32, O = 16, Al = 27 and H=1]

9. A tank initially contains 200 litres of fresh water. Brine containing 2.5 N/litre of dissolved salt runs into the tank at the rate of 8 litres/min and the mixture kept uniform by stirring runs out at the same rate. How long will it take for the quantity of salt in the tank to be 180 N? In 10 mins, determine the concentration of the salt in the mixture.
A catchment area is at latitude 27°24' N and at an elevation of 235 m. The mean monthly temperatures are given below. Month Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun Jul Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec Mean Monthly 12.5 15.8 20.7 27 32 33.5 30.5 29 28.2 28.8 18.9 13.7 Temperature (*C) Using Thornthwaite Formula. Note: Use 4 decimal places for the value of "a" an La in the computation only and three (3) decimal places for the answer (Example if L,= 1.7675, just type 1.768; if a = 5.6785, just type 5.678). Compute the value of La for the month of February in 3 decimal places.
