Water flowing through a cylindrical pipe suddenly comes to a section of pipe where the diameter decreases to 86% of its previous value. If the speed of the water in the larger section of the pipe was what is its speed in this smaller section if the water behaves like an ideal incompressible fluid

Explanation:

The speed of the water in the large section of the pipe is not stated

so i will assume 36m/s

(if its not the said speed, input the figure of your speed and you get it right)

Continuity equation is applicable for ideal, incompressible liquids

Q the flux of water that is  Av with A the cross section area and v the velocity,

so,

the diameter decreases 86% so

Thus, speed in smaller section is 48.6 m/s

  the grams     of oxygen gas   that can be produced     is 20.6   grams of o₂

calculation

2liclo₃ →   2 licl + 3 o₂

step 1:   find the moles of liclo₃

moles = mass÷ molar mass

from periodic table the molar mass of liclo₃ =6.9 +35.5   +(16 x3) =90.4 g/mol

moles=38.7 g÷90.4 g/mol=0.4281   moles

step 2:   use the   mole ratio   to calculate the moles of o2

from equation above, liclo₃: o₂   is 2: 3  

therefore the moles of   o₂=0.4281 moles x3/2 =0.6422   moles

step 3: find mass   of o₂

mass= moles x molar mass

from periodic table the   molar mass of   o₂ = 16 x2= 32 g/mol

mass=0.6422   moles   x   32 g/mol = 20.6 grams of o₂
