Make a plot of the height of a column of water (in meters) that the osmotic pressure between freshwater and saltwater can support as a function of salinity between 0 and 10% (weight of salt per weight of solution) of NaCl in water. Assume a constant density of 1025 kg/m3

The salinity (mostly NaCl) in some parts of the Great Salt Lake (Utah) is 27%; this is sometimes expressed as 270 parts per thousand, meaning 270 g of salt per liter of solution. Estimate the height of a column of water that can be supported by the osmotic pressure between Great Salt Lake water and freshwater. The density of a 27% salt solution is ≈ 1200 kg/m3

Consider the experiment of Jean-Antoine Nollet as described in the text, which illustrates the osmotic pressure between water and wine. Assume wine is 12% (by volume) of ethanol in water, and estimate, as in Example 14.4, the height of a column of water that the osmotic pressure between water and wine can support. Note that the van ‘t Hoff factor depends on the nature of the solvent and that a value of i ≈ 1.0 is appropriate for ethanol in water.

A home owner in Maine replaces six 60-W incandescent bulbs in a family room with equivalent CFLs. Using the following information, estimate the net annual energy savings (in dollars) for lighting and heating. The lamps are on an average of 3.5 hours per day, and electricity costs $0.105/kWh. The home is heated with an oil furnace at an efficiency of 87%, and home heating fuel costs $2.81 per U.S. gallon. Heat is required 191 days per year, and there is no air conditioning.

A large passenger ship weighs 75,000 tonnes and has a cruising speed of 45 km/h. The engines burn diesel fuel (approximately the same energy content as crude oil) with an efficiency of 20%. The drive system has an average efficiency of 55% for converting mechanical energy into propulsion for the ship. Calculate the volume of fuel needed to accelerate the ship from rest to cruising speed.
