Answer / o.v.r.reddy

MULTI EXTRACTIONS WITH COUNTER CURRENT WAY WITH SMALL
VOLUME OF SOLVENT IS BEST OR CONTINUOS EXTRACTION IN TOWER
WITH CONTACTING OF SOLUTE AND SOLVENT PHASES OPPOSITELY
UNDER SLOW STIRRING DEPENDING UPON SP.GRAVITY OF RSFITE AND
ORGANIC.

Answer / mohan

several small volume exractions are quiet best than the
single exraction..coz thr may be a chance for getting the
undesired product,i mean we dnt get the desired
quality..and also the feed must not be fully extracted in
case of single exraction,moreover it takes much time to
extract the feed..but in multi extractions with small
volume fullfill the drawback from the single extraction..it
takes less time to extract the feed..

MICROBIOLOGICAL ENGINEERING - QUESTION 28.2 : A hemocytometer is a device that is used for counting cells. In an engineering experiment, 100 microlitres of cell suspension is diluted with 50 microlitres of Trypan blue dye. Only death cells appear blue in color when stained with the dye. There are 57 cells detected in a hemocytometer, where 5.3 % of them appear blue when the chamber of the meter is placed under a microscope. Each square of a chamber can contain 0.0001 mL of liquid. (a) Calculate the number of viable cells. (b) The cells occupied 5 squares. Calculate the average number of viable cells / square. (c) Calculate the dilution factor of the cell suspension by using the formula : Dilution = final volume / initial volume. (d) Calculate the concentration of viable cells / mL by using the formula : Concentration = (Average number of viable cells / square) x dilution x (square / volume).

Question 77 - The molecular weights M in kg / mol of 3 different monomers a, b and c in a polymer are Ma = 14, Mb = 16 and Mc = 18, with their respective quantities in N units having the ratio of Na : Nb : Nc = 2 : 3 : 5. (a) Find the numerical average molecular weight of the polymer by using the formula (Ma Na + Mb Nb + Mc Nc) / (Na + Nb + Nc). (b) Find the weighted average molecular weight of the polymer by using the formula (Ma Na Ma + Mb Nb Mb + Mc Nc Mc) / (Ma Na + Mb Nb + Mc Nc). (c) Calculate the polydispersity Q by using the answer in (b) divided by answer in (a). (d) Find the volumetric average molecular weight of the polymer by using the formula (Ma Na Ma Ma + Mb Nb Mb Mb + Mc Nc Mc Mc) / (Ma Na Ma + Mb Nb Mb + Mc Nc Mc). (e) Estimate the polydispersity Q by using the answer in (d) divided by answer in (b).
