A tank initially contains 200 gallons of water in which 50 lbs of salt are dissolved. A salt solution containing 0.5 lb of salt per gallon is poured into the tank at a rate of 1 gal/min. The mixture in the tank is stirred and drained off at the rate of 2 gal/min. a) Find the amount of salt in the tank until the tank is empty. b) Find the concentration of salt in the tank until the tank is empty.

Mixtures of Non- Reacting Fluids A 100-L container initially have 50 L of water with 100 g of soluble chemical. Pre-mixed solution containing 2 grams of the soluble chemical per liter is pumped in at a rate of 3 L/min. Well-stirred mixtures comes out at a rate of 1 L/min. What is the concentration, in grams per liter, of the chemical in water as it is filled?
A synthetic sample of water is prepared by adding 100 mg Kaolinite (a clay mineral), 200 mg glucose, 168 mg NaCl, 120 mg MgSO4, and 111 mg CaCl₂ to 1 liter of pure water. The concentrations of total solids (TS) and fixed dissolved solids (FDS) respectively in the solution in rug/L are equal to A 699 and 599 B с D 599 and 399 699 and 199 699 and 399
Using a mass balance, derive a design equation (concentration as a function of time) for a batch system with second order reaction kinetics (r = -kC2). If the units of concentration and time are mol/L and s, what are the units of k?
Problem 4. A receipt of surface water sample is given in Table below: Substance Concentration (mg/L) Total Hardness 1000 mg/L CaCO3 Phenolphthalein acidity 5 mg/L CaCO3 Phenolphthalein Alkalinity 3 mg/L CaCO3 It is known that phenolphthalein alkalinity is only due to CO3²- and phenolphthalein acidity is only due to H₂CO3. Assuming the hardness of sample is because of calcium and magnesium ions, alkalinity-acidity are due to the carbonate species, calculate: a) The pH of sample. b) Temporary and permanent hardness as mg/L CaCO3. c) Total alkalinity and acidity as mg/L CaCO3. Molecular weights (g/mole): Ca = 40, Mg = 24, H = 1, C = 12, 0 = 16
A sample of water is to be analyzed for solids content. Ten liters of water are passed through a filter (initial weight of filter is 15 grams). After drying at 105 C, the filter plus residual weighs 43 grams. Another 10 liters of sample of the same water is evaporated, without filtering, yielding a residual mass of 40 grams. The result of the analysis is calculated as follows: a. Total Solids of this water is--- b. Suspended Solids is--- c. Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) is- -Grams per liter. -Grams per liter. -Grams per liter. Please Note: The purpose of this problem is for you to understand the difference between Total Solids, Suspended Solids and Total Dissolved Solids. Also pay attention that the units as the sample is 10 liters and the problem is asking you to calculate the values per liter.
An analysis of water from a surface source yields the following results: Ions Concentration (mg/l) Ca +2 Mg +2 HCO3 SO²- 60 18 91.5 96 The temporary hardness (as CaCO3) and permanent hardness (as CaCO3) present in the water are
Q3: the 2000 gallon tank initially contains 600 gallons of water with 5 lbs of salt dissolved in it. Water enters the tank at a rate of 9 gal/hr and the water entering the tank has a salt concentration of 0.2 (1+cos(t)) lbs/gal. If a well-mixed solution leaves the tank at a rate of 6 gal/hr, how much salt is in the tank when it overflows?
Problem 4. A vessel contains 200 Liters of brine with 30 grams of dissolved salt. Brine containing 1 gram of salt per liter enters the vessel at 4 liters per minute. The solution is kept thoroughly mixed and drains from the vessel at the same rate. Calculate the amount of salt in the tank after 5 minutes.
Mixtures of Non-Reacting Fluids Initially ,a container contains 100 L of water and 50 g of dissolved salt. Brine is pumped into the tank at a rate of 2 L/min with a salt content of 2 grams per liter. At a rate of 3 L/min, the well-stirred mixture is pushed out of the tank. Determine the solution's concentration after 1 hour.
