Knovel Problems:
K1-1 Site Navigation/Browsing Content
a) Convert 7750 kg/m3 to lb/ft3 using the Unit Converter.
b) Using the Periodic Table, determine the atomic weight of magnesium.
c) What is the name of Section 4 in Perry’s Chemical Engineers’ Handbook (7th Edition)?
d) Find a book title that encompasses the fundamentals of chemistry as well as contains interactive tables of chemical data.
K1-2 Search Engine
a) Using the basic search option in Knovel, find as much physical and thermodynamic data associated with ammonium nitrate
as possible. What applications does this chemical have?
b) Using the basic search, find the formula for the volume of both a sphere and a cylinder.
c) Using the Knovel Data Search, produce a list of five chemicals with a boiling point between 300 and 400 K.
K1-3 Interactive Tools
a) Using the Equation Plotter, determine the enthalpy of vaporization of pure acetic acid at 360 K.
b) What is the pressure (in atm) of air with a temperature of 200˚F and a water content of 10-2 lb water/lb air?
c) Find three grades of polymers with a melting point greater than 325°C.
These three sets of problems are designed to provide an introduction to Knovel, its website
(http://www.knovel.com/web/portal/browse), and the interactive tools available on it.
Information on Knovel can be found either by browsing or by 2 types of search, Basic and Data.
