BIOCHEMICAL ENGINEERING INSTRUMENTATION - EXAMPLE 29.6 : In infrared spectrum, one of the factors affecting peak location is the mass of the atoms. The stretching frequency of a bond connected to a lighter atom will be greater than the same bond connected to a heavier atom. (a) For halogens like florine (F), chlorine (Cl), bromine (Br), iodine (I) and astatine (At), what is their IUPAC group number? Hint : The proton numbers for F, Cl, Br, I and At are 9, 17, 35, 53 and 85 respectively. (b) For the compounds of H-F, H-Cl, H-Br, H-I and H-At, which one has the lowest stretching frequency and which one has the highest stretching frequency? State the reasons.
BIOCHEMICAL ENGINEERING INSTRUMENTATION - ANSWER 29.6 : (a) 17. (b) Lowest stretching frequency : H-At. Highest stretching frequency : H-F. Reasons : F has the lowest proton number 9 and At has the highest proton number 85. For the compound of H-X, the stretching frequency of the bond decreases when the mass of X increases and vice versa.

Question 75 - 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. The fraction of polymer chain X of 3 different monomers a, b and c in a polymer are Xa = 0.5, Xb = 0.3 and Xc = 0.2. (i) Calculate number average molecular weight by using the formula Ma Xa + Mb Xb + Mc Xc. (ii) Calculate weight average molecular weight by using the formula (Ma Xa Ma + Mb Xb Mb + Mc Xc Mc) / (Ma Xa + Mb Xb + Mc Xc). (iii) Calculate the polydispersity by using the answer in (ii) divided by answer in (i). (iv) If the molecular weight of repeat unit is 12, calculate the degree of polymerization by using the formula (Ma Xa + Mb Xb + Mc Xc) / (molecular weight of repeat unit).

ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL ENGINEERING - EXAMPLE 34.29 : An engineering company that produces small biochemical tools applies Installment Sales Method in its accounting. Let A = Installment Sales, B = Cost of Installment Sales, C = Gross Profit, D = Gross Profit Ratio. In year 20X8, let A = $400, B = $250, C = $150. In year 20X9, let A = $450, B = $315, C = $135. If the value of D = 37.5 % in year 20X8 : (a) find the value of D for year 20X9; (b) calculate the realized gross profit = ED / 100, for year 20X8 when the cash collected from sales is E = $100.

CHEMICAL ENERGY BALANCE - EXAMPLE 11.1 : Please match the term A - E with the stated definition i - v. Terms : A. Yield. B. Selectivity. C. Relative saturation. D. Molal saturation. E. Absolute saturation. Definitions : i. (moles of desired product formed) / (moles that would have been formed if there were no side reactions and the limiting reactant has reacted completely); ii. (moles of desired product formed) / (moles of undesired product formed); iii. (relative humidity 40 % means partial pressure of water vapour equals 4 / 10 of the vapour pressure of water at the system temperature); iv. (moles of vapour) / (moles of vapour dry gas); v. (mass of vapour) / (mass of dry gas).
