Water displacement

When water is displacing oil in the reservoir, the mobility ratio determines which of the fluids moves preferentially through the pore space. The mobility ratio or water displacing oil is defined as ... 

Phosphoms is stored and handled under a protective layer of water. Production quantities are transferred as a Hquid by either water displacement or pumps, with water recycle to maintain the water balance and cover. In earlier times, phosphoms was sometimes stored in underground tanks or pits, but as of the 1990s storage is limited to tanks located inside diked areas that are accessible on the outside for safety and leakage control.

Phenyl diazonium ion, PhN2, reacts with nucleophiles in several ways. Water displaces N2 to give phenol, while dimethylamine adds to the terminal N. 

These have been developed for special uses. For example, since petroleum-based materials harm natural rubber, a grease based on castor oil and lead stearate is available for use on the steel parts of rubber bushes, engine mountings, hydraulic equipment components, etc. (but not on copper or cadmium alloys). Some soft-film solvent-deposited materials have water-displacing properties and are designed for use on surfaces which cannot be dried properly, e.g. water-spaces of internal combustion engines and the cylinders or valve chests of steam engines. 

A recent application of this type of fluid is assistance in the removal of ingested salt spray from jet aircraft compressors and the neutralisation of corrosive effects. Other types of water-displacing fluids are claimed to have fingerprint neutralising properties or to be suitable for use on electrical equipment. Some oil-type materials serve temporarily as engine lubricants and contain suitable inhibitors to combat the corrosive products of combustion encountered in gasoline engines. 

A 0.500-g sample of zinc-copper alloy was treated with dilute hydrochloric acid. The hydrogen gas evolved was collected by water displacement at 27°C and a total pressure of 755 mm Hg. The volume of the water displaced by the gas is 105.7 mL. What is the percent composition, by mass, erf the alloy (Vapor pressure of H20 at 27°C is 26.74 mm Hg.) Assume only the zinc reacts. 

The quantitative analysis procedure involves benz extr of TNT, water extr of AN, and taking of the A1 content as insol residue. Moisture content is detd by the Karl Fischer method described in ASTM Method E203-62, except that 8 to lOg samples are added to methanol. Specific gravity is detd by water displacement, and workmanship by visual examination... 

Mass can be determined by using a balance. If the object has a regular shape, such as a cube or a cylinder, volume can be calculated from length measurements. However, most objects have irregular shapes, and the volume must be determined indirectly. One way to measure the volume of an irregularly shaped item that does not dissolve in or react with water is by water displacement. An item that is entirely submerged in water will displace a volume of water equal to its volume. 

How can you find the densities of objects by using water displacement to measure their volumes ... 

There is a large amount of data available concerning the thermodynamic effects of ligands on other coordination sites (i. e., the thermodynamic cis- and iraws-effects). However, very little is known about the effects of ligands on the kinetic lability of other coordination sites. In fact, very little work has been carried out, directly with Bi2-derivatives, or with models of B12, on the kinetics of ligand substitution at the cobalt center. Of particular biochemical interest would be studies on the rate of displacement of coordinated benzimidazole by various ligands. Such work has not been reported at present. If the benzimidazole is replaced during enzymatic catalysis so that the lower axial position is occupied by some other Lewis base, one would expect this displacement, and the reverse step, to be very facile. This appears to be qualitatively true in that when water displaces benzimidazole as the benzimidazole is pro-...

It has been demonstrated that the chromatographic separation, on filter paper, of the corresponding sugar from the products of condensation of ethyl acetoacetate with hexoses and pentoses is possible. The solvent mixture used (butanol-acetic acid-water) displaced all the products of condensation at the same rate.17... 

Together, the two lobster-generated currents that can be measured around the animal s anterior end are complex and carefully controlled. They are ideally suited to carry urine, urine pheromones, and gill metabolites away from the lobster to specified directions. Simultaneously, the water displaced by these outgoing currents results in incoming currents with chemical signals from the environment that can be sampled by the antennular chemoreceptors. 

The loss in mass is equal to the volume of water displaced, which is equal to the volume of the object. Since the density of water is 1.0 g/mL, the volume of the water displaced is 11.0 mL. This is also the volume... 

Thermally enhanced extraction is another experimental approach for DNAPL source removal. Commonly know as steam injection, this technique for the recovery of fluids from porous media is not new in that it has been used for enhanced oil recovery in the petroleum industry for decades, but its use in aquifer restoration goes back to the early 1980s. Steam injection heats the solid-phase porous media and causes displacement of the pore water below the water table. As a result of pore water displacement, DNAPL and aqueous-phase chlorinated solvent compounds are dissolved and volatilized. The heat front developed during steam injection is controlled by temperature gradients and heat capacity of the porous media. Pressure gradients and permeability play a less important role. 

Air injection systems, by their very nature, start with no initial hydraulic control because flow is away from the injection point. Contaminants are sometimes spread laterally by water displacement until control is established. 

The most common procedure is to produce oxygen gas by decomposing KC103. A common variation is to measure the volume of gas produced by displacing water from a flask. The volume of water displaced is the volume of gas generated at that temperature and pressure. From a measurement of the atmospheric pressure and the temperature of the gas, the volume of gas at STP can be calculated.

Nguyen et al. [205] designed a volume displacement technique that was used to measure the capillary pressures for both hydrophobic and hydrophilic materials. One requirement for this method is that the sample material must have enough pore volume to be able to measure the respective displaced volume. Basically, while the sample is filled wifh water and then drained, the volume of water displaced is recorded. In order for the water to be drained from fhe material, it is vital to keep the liquid pressure higher than the gas pressure (i.e., pressure difference is key). Once the sample is saturated, the liquid pressure can be reduced slightly in order for the water to drain. From these tests, plots of capillary pressure versus water saturation corresponding to both imbibitions and drainages can be determined. A similar method was presented by Koido, Furusawa, and Moriyama [206], except they studied only the liquid water imbibition with different diffusion layers.
