Students have asked these similar questions
A student began an experiment for the
determination of 5-day, 20°C BOD on
Monday. Since the 5th day fell on
Saturday, the final DO readings were
taken on next Monday. On calculation,
BOD (ie. 7 day, 20°C) was found to
be 150 mg/L. What would be the 5-
day, 20°C BOD (in mg/L) (up to 2
decimal value)? Assume the value of
BOD rate constant (k) at a standard
temperature of 20°C as 0,23/day (base
e).
If the viscosity of water at 68 deg F is 0.1008 poise, compute its absolute viscosity (μ)in pound-seconds per square foot. If the specific gravity is 1.02, compute its kinematicviscosity (v) in square feet per second
