Liquid ethanol is pumped from a large storage tank through a 1-inch ID pipe at a rate of 3.00 gal/min.
(a) At what rate in (i) ft(lbf/s and (ii) hp is kinetic energy being transported by the ethanol in the pipe?
(b) The electrical power input to the pump transporting the ethanol must be greater than the amount you calculated in Part (a). What would you guess becomes of the additional energy? (There are several possibe answers.)

1) Using the half reaction data in Table 11.1), write balanced overall reactions for the
following redox processes. Calculate the E°, peº and delataGº values for each overall
reaction. Indicate whether each reaction is thermodynamically favorable under standard
conditions.
i) Oxidation of Mn2+ to MnO2(s) using 12(aq) to form I-.
ii) Oxidation of Pb(s) to Pb2+ by Zn²+ to form Zn(s).
iii) Oxidation of acetate (CH3COO¯) to CO2 by SO4²¯ to form HS¯.

2) Chlorinated solvents such as carbon tetrachloride (CCI4) can be degraded in a process called
reductive dechlorination where Cl atoms are removed and replaced with H atoms. For
example:
CCl4 + H+ +2е¯ CHCl3 + CI Eº = 0.67 V
In the process of in situ bioremediation an electron donor such as acetate (CH3COO¯) is
typically added and is oxidized to provide the electrons for the reduction of CCl4. In
groundwater devoid of oxygen, nitrate typically serves as the electron acceptor. Answer
the questions below using thermodynamics data and that provided above.
i) Can CCl4 could serve as an electron acceptor for acetate?
ii) Which electron acceptor, CCl4 or NO3, would be thermodynamically preferred?
iii) What do the results in i and ii imply for remediation in an aquifer that also
contains nitrate?
Problem 4.3
A thermal power plant plans to replace 20 vol.% of its natural gas by renewable hydrogen
from a nearby facility. In its public announcement, the company claims a corresponding (20%)
reduction in CO2 emissions, which has been challenged by an environmental group. Can you
do necessary calculations to settle the issue and avoid possible public embarrassment for the
company?
