What is the NFPA diamond?

200

This is the ratio of the amount of material that returns to the distillation column to the amount of material that is collected in the distillate.

What is the Reflux Ratio?

200

This process separates the components from a liquid mixture by selective evaporation and condensation.

What is Distillation?

200

This law states that the electric potential difference between two points is proportional to current flow.

What is Ohm’s Law?

200

The rock cycle describes the transitions between magma and this many different types of rocks.

What is 3?

“Eat Fresh.”

What is Subway?

400

The 3 sides of the fire triangle.

What are oxidizer, fuel and ignition source?

400

The McCabe-Thiele Method and Diagram are used to determine the theoretical number of these. 

What are Plates, Trays or Stages?

400

The Haber-Bosch process is used to convert atmospheric nitrogen and hydrogen to this hazardous gas.

What is Ammonia?

400

This circuit element resists changes in electric current.

What is an Inductor (coil, reactor)?

400

Radiocarbon dating determines the age of organic material by using the properties of this carbon isotope.

What is 14C?

400

“Snap! Crackle! Pop!”

What is Rice Krispies?

600

This type of flow is generally assumed when sizing a relief valve for a runaway reaction.

What is 2-phase flow?

600

This is a mixture which when vaporized produces the same composition as the liquid and cannot be distilled past that composition.

What is an Azeotrope?

600

This process transfers solute from a feed solution to an immiscible solvent and is common in nuclear reprocessing and the production of fine organic compounds.

What is Liquid-liquid Extraction or Solvent Extraction or Partitioning?

600

Invented by Benjamin Franklin, this protects buildings from the discharge of atmospheric charge.

What is a Lightning Rod?

600

This type of rock is generally formed through the cooling and solidification of magma or lava.

What is Igneous Rock?

600

“Taste the Rainbow.”

What is Skittles?

800

This is the power to which the volume (V) is raised in the following equation when experimental explosion data are used to determine the explosive behavior of materials in process vessels.

What is 1/3?

800

In this type of distillation, the column pressure is reduced causing evaporation of the most volatile component.

What is a Vacuum Distillation?

800

This process is designed to remove gas pollutants using a liquid solvent.

What is Scrubbing or Absorption?

800

This type of material produces electricity when a mechanical stress is applied.

What is Piezoelectric?

800

This type of boundary commonly has tectonic plates that move toward one another and collide, forming mountain ranges.

What is Convergent Boundary?

800

“Because You’re Worth It.”

What is L’Oreal?

1000

This type of electrostatic discharge can occur in the situation shown below. 

What is a propagating brush discharge or a Lichtenberg discharge?

1000

These allow for easier and more controlled boiling due to the porous surface and cavitation sites.

What are Boiling Stones/Chips?

1000

This process uses heat and a reducing agent to purify ore, removing gas or slag and leaving just the metal base behind.

What is Smelting?

1000

The equivalent resistance of four 100Ω resistors in parallel.

What is 25Ω?

1000

This peak, which is almost over 9,000 m tall, is still growing at nearly 2 cm/year.

What is Mt. Everest?
