93) [40 pts) Chlorine is used by a local water treatment plant. There is a leakage of chlorine from a damaged valve at the rate of 0.2 gallon per 8 hours. Assume a ventilation rate of 4000 m3/min and good ventilation (k=0.5). Molecular weight of chlorine is 70.9. Pressure is 1 atm, and temperature is 535 degree R. The TLV value for Chlorine is 0.5 ppm. a. Estimate the concentration (in ppm) of chlorine in a closed room. (15 pts] b. Comment on the result obtained in (a). 15 pts c. In your own words explain briefly the phenomena that can affect the concentration of the given volatile material in an enclosed room. (15 pts| d. On considering the result obtained in (a), explain the solutions that decrease the concentration of chlorine below the TLV value. 15 pts
