S.No. QUESTION COs

1. How do you soften the hard water by permutid process? Describe giving
chemical equation, and mention advantages and disadvantages of permutid CO1
process of softening water over lime soda process
2. Explain the mechanism of free radical chain polymerization. CO3
3. What is vulcanization? Describe the chemistry of vulcanization with reaction. CO3
Give its significance
4. Explain proximate analysis. Give its significance. CO2
5. Explain the principle, instrumentation and application Gas chromatography. CO5
6. What are lubricants? Give the various functions of lubricant and mechanisms of CO2,
lubrication. CO4

7. The hardness of 10,000 liters of a sample of water was completely removed by CO1,
zeolite softner. The zeolite softener required 60 liters of NaCl solution CO3
containing 1.5 Kg/ litre of NaCl for regeneration. Calculate the hardness of
sample of water.

8. A hard water sample has the following compositional data Ca(HCO3)2 = 162 CO1,
ppm,Mg(HCO3)2 = 73 ppm, CaCl2 = 111 ppm, MgCl2 = 95 ppm, CaSO4 = CO4
250ppm, MgSO4 = 120 ppm, FeSO4.7 H2O= 139 ppm, CO2 = 44 ppm.
Calculate temporary and permanent hardness and the quantity of lime and soda
required for softening one million liters of water.
9. An oil sample under test has a Saybolt universal viscosity of 64 sec at 2100 F and CO2,
560 sec at 1000F .The Gulf oil possess a seybolt viscosity of 64 sec at 2100F and CO4
770 sec at 1000F . The Pennysylvanian oil gave a saybolt viscosity values of 64
sec at 2100F and 410 sec at 1000F calculate the viscosity Index of oil sample
under test .
10. On burning 0.75 x 10-3 Kg of a solid fuel in a bomb calorimeter, the temperature CO2,
of 2.5 Kg water is increased from 24°C to 28°C. The water equivalent of CO4
calorimeter and latent heat of steam are 0.485 Kg and 4.2 x 587 kJ/kg
respectively. Specific heat of water is 4.2 kJ/kg/ °C. If the fuel contains 2.5%
hydrogen, calculate its gross and net calorific values. Mention the salient
features of determination of calorific value by Bomb calorimeter.
