Question: Problem 1 . ( 3 points ) A reverse osmosis membrane has a k w value of 1 * 1 0 - 4 L m

Problem 1.(3 points) A reverse osmosis membrane has a kw value of 1*10-4Lm2*s*bar and a ks value of
5*10-4Lm2*s. Find the permeate salt concentration if the feed concentration is 2,000mgL,
the system operates at a gauge pressure of 30 bar on the feed side of the membrane, and
98% of salt is rejected. You may assume the permeate has a negligible osmotic pressure.
Problem 2.(3 points) The following mineral analysis was reported for a water sample taken from Well
No.1 at the Eastwood Manor Subdivision near McHenry Illinois in 1976. Determine the
total, carbonate, and noncarbonate hardness in units of mgL as CaCO3. Note that because
all the constituents were not analyzed, the ion balance will not work out. All values are
given as mgL as the ion unless otherwise stated.
