Problems (click here)
2-9, 2-10, 2-11, 2-12, 2-15, 2-18
Regarding the solutions to
Problems 2-15 and 2-18, recall that the posted solutions employed the
wrong "probit values" (see Table 2.5) as discussed in class.
However, the principles and concepts employed are correct.
Also, there was confusion regarding the wording of the textbook
problems. The two problems weres subject to various
interpretations. The exam, however, will be clear with what is
sought.

6. What (or who,where, why) is Sax?
Note 1: For the solution to
Problem No. 3.14, recall as discussed in class that the posted solution
uses the "wrong" TLV-TWA values (See Table 2-8). Hence the posted
solution is in error. The approach, however, is correct.
Note 2: Several students reported using the equation shown in
Example 3-5 for Problem No. 3.14. There was some "confusion" in
class. Observe however that C1 and C2 are 0.70 and 0.30,
respectively. The sum of which is unity (1). Thus, the
numerator equals 1! This is similar to the solution shown for
Example 3-4. The equation for TLVmix is actually the equation for
(TLV-TWA)mix. Once again, C1 and C2 are 0.622 and 0.378, and the
sum (or the numerator) is 1. Hopefully, this clears up the
confusion. In both cases,
Eqn. 3-4 was employed! Do you agree?
