Hydrogen Energy

Energy is a quantity that cannot be defined, its existence can only be felt. In simple language, if a system possesses energy, it can do a specific kind of work. There are many forms of energy sources which people can use to obtain work. Solar energy, tidal energy, hydroelectric energy, geothermal energy, wind energy are some of the renewable energy sources which are primarily used for the production of electricity.

2. Families in a community in a developing country use large, 200.0 L drums to un-treated surface water. You are designing a device that is designed to dose the volume with a coagulant, stir to allow flocculation, then add chlorine tablets to disinfect the water. The water is 25 °C and initially contains 1.0E+09 particles per L. The initial particles can be assumed to be spherical, 15.0 micrometers in diameter, and with a density of 1.675 g/mL. a. If the drums have a diameter of 572 mm, how long will it take for the particles to completely settle without any coagulation or flocculation? (answer in seconds) You have determined that you can achieve complete destabilization of particles by achieving an ionic strength of 0.01 M or higher.
