100 litres each of gasoline (55°API), kerosene (40°API), gas oil (31°API), and isopentane (96 °API ) are mixed. The density of water at 288.5 K = 0.999 g/mL.

  1. Determine the density of the mixture in kg/m3.
  2. What is the specific gravity of the mixture in °API?
  3. Express the composition of the mixture in weight percent.

Several organizations publish occupational exposure limits (OELs) including the Occupational Safety and Health Administration's (OSHA) permissible exposure limits (PELs), the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists' (ACGIH) threshold limit values (TLVs), and the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health's (NIOSH) recommended exposure limits (RELs). Only OSHA's PELs are legally enforceable. Discuss why you would only use the OSHA PEL at a facility where you were the safety officer, or alternatively, why you would choose to use one of the other OELs or a combination of the OELs.

In the transmission of infectious diseases, aerosolised droplets (from coughing and sneezing) are an important potential mode of transmission.

The size of droplets is critical, as the size dictates the rate at which droplets settle to surfaces under the action of gravity. You have been tasked with determining the settling rate (terminal velocity) of aerosolized droplets. The droplets may be assumed to be spherical, and have the properties of water (ρ=1000 kg/m3, μ=0.001 Pas). The droplets can be assumed to be settling in a quiescent atmosphere at standard temperature and pressure.

Determine the length of time droplets of the following sizes (at their terminal velocity) take to fall a distance of 1.0 m:

• 1μm

• 200μm
