Question

Problem 2 (16 points) Given the following: Fe2-202 20-Fe" (OH), +2H. K 625 x 10O L min mol Initial dissolved oxygen: DO 268mM Initial iron concentration : Fe2+-5.58 mg/L pH 6.0 The rate law for the loss of iron,-=-k [FeTomT [DO] a) Calculate the rate of production/loss of Fe2 b) For a final Fe concentration of 0.3 mg/L, determine the concentration 6 marks] and rate of production/loss of DO, Fe(OH)3, alkalinity, and acid. Assume a constant pH. Use a stoichiometric table to obtain the values. [10 marks] [This question was in the 2017 mid-semester test]

Explanation / Answer

(a) The rate law for loss of Fe2+ = -k[Fe2+][OH-]2[DO]

GIVEN DATA

Fe2+=5.58mg/l

DO =.268mM

pH=6

as we know

pH+pOH =14

pOH=14-6=8

pOH =-log[OH-]

[OH-]=10-8

PUTTING ALL VALUES IN RATE LAW EQUATION

r = -6.25*1016 *.268 *5.58 *10-8

= -9.34*108 divide it by 1000 because DO is given in mM so to convert it to mole

= -9.34*105 mg/min
