The disinfection of water is carried out in a stirred tank. The treatment process has water as the input at a rate of 48, 000 L/h. The tank carries 3500 L of water at all times. Sufficient chlorine is fed to the water. The rate of disinfection can be described as a first-order reaction with a rate constant of 0.25/min. The efficiency of the system can be expected to be (A) 0.22 (B) 0.32 (C) 0.42 (D) 0.52
