Sulfate-nitrate ratio

Thus over the whole cycle the quality of the treated water is changing drastically with respect to chloride and alkalinity which presents corrosivity control difficulties with regard to the downstream distribution network. Also if the sulfate/nitrate concentration ratio in the influent is high ( 1), an overrun of the column may cause effluent nitrate residuals to quickly rise to above their influent concentration due to displacement by a high concentration front of sulfate ion. 

The upper portion of Table III gives the sulfate data for the midwestern site and the lower portion presents the data for the eastern sites. The dotted lines connect those sites for which it is considered most appropriate to calculate ratios between the recent and the older concentrations. The right hand column provides additional data for comparison to the middle column. The same format is used in Table IV. The basic feature to note in the tables is that the sulfate ratios are near one, while those for nitrate are greater than one. These trends will now be compared to the source emissions trends. 

JACOBSON The interpretation that the high sulfate to nitrate ratio increased growth is indeed more reasonable than suggesting that the high nitrate to sulfate ratio treatment depressed growth. 

Chemical composition data for CPM and FPM for a variety of locations are summarized in Table 5. These data illustrate several important points. First, the distributions of the PM q between CPM and FPM vary from about 0.4 to 0.7. Second, the ratio of PM q to TSP varies from 0.58 to 0.79. In general, both this ratio and the ratio of FPM to PM q tend to be higher at mral sites, but Bermuda, because of the large influence of sea salt in the CPM, is an exception. Sulfate (SO ), carbon (as organic carbon, OC, and elemental carbon, EC), and nitrate (NO3 ) compounds generally account for 70—80% of the FPM. In the eastern United States, compounds are the dominant species, although very Httie is emitted directiy into the atmosphere. Thus... 

In Experiment 7, would the ratio between moles of copper atoms used and moles of silver atoms formed change if silver sulfate, Ag2S04, had been used rather than silver nitrate, AgN03 Explain. 

Phenanthridine (74) was converted by NBS into the 2-bromo derivative (40%) (55JA6379), but the bromine-sulfuric acid-silver sulfate reagent gave low yields of 1-, 4-, and 10-bromophenanthridines in the ratio (1 6.4 9.5), a reactivity order which contrasts with that found in nitration (1 > 10 > 4 > 2) (69AJC1105). Phosphoryl chloride converted phenanthridine 5-oxide into the 6-chloro derivative, but when that position was blocked by a phenyl substituent, the reductive chlorination process gave a 2-chloro compound (84MI2). 

NMe is now commercially available and is prepd by the vapor phase nitration of methane at a ratio of 9 moles of methane to I mole of nitric acid at 475° and a residence time of 0.18sec (Ref 12) or by the similar nitration of aliphatic hydrocarbons (Ref 8). Other prepns are from Me sulfate and Na nitrite (Ref 26) by the oxidn of Me amine with dinitrogen trioxide in the gas phase or in methylene chloride, yield 27%... 

Tetryl. In the manufacture of Tetryl, it is usual not to nitrate dime thy laniline directly, but to dissolve it first in coned sulfuric acid and then to nitrate the dimethylaniline sulfate so obtained. Direct nitration of dimethylaniline proceeds so violently that it can be carried out only under specialized conditions. Many years experience of Tetryl manufacture has shown that the ratio of sulfuric acid to dimethylaniline should not be lower than 3 1, since a smaller amount of sulfuric acid may be detrimental to the nitration process. However, the ratio of sulfuric acid to dimethylaniline must not be too high, otherwise Tetryl yield is decreased. Temp must be maintained between 20-45° to avoid sulfonation of the benzene ring. Care must be exercised not to leave any unreacted dimethylaniline prior to introduction of nitric acid, because of the potential violence of the dimethyl-aniline-nitric acid reaction. Consequently, continuous methods of prepn are to be preferred as they inherently minimize accumulation of unreacted dimethylaniline... 

Boiler compound formulations containing aluminate, silicate, and carbonate ingredients have commonly utilized various ratios of some or all of these constituents, together with caustic soda (for alkalinity control), sodium nitrate or sulfate (to prevent caustic embrittlement), sodium lig-nosulfonate (sludge conditioner), and other compounds. 

The law may be expressed in an another fashion by stating that the same quantity of electricity is required to liberate 1 g-equiv. of any product of electrolysis. This quantity of electricity is known as the Faraday, and is 96,500 coulombs. To elaborate, let the passage of the same quantity of electricity through two solutions, one of copper sulfate and the other of silver nitrate, be considered. According to Faraday s third law, the ratio of the weights of the copper and the silver deposited is equal to the ratio of the equivalent weights of these two metals. Ionically, the deposition reaction for the two metals considered can be shown as... 

Whereas treatment of phenanthridine with AT-bromosuccinimide gives only 2-bromo-phenanthridine, use of bromine and silver sulfate in 92% sulfuric acid gives, in low yields, 10-, 4- and 1-bromo-phenanthridines in the ratio 9.5 6.4 1 together with some dibromo products (Scheme 11) (69AJC1105). This order of reactivity contrasts with that observed for nitration of phenanthridine (Section 2.06.2.1.2).
