A tank contains 240 liters of fluid in which 10 grams of salt is dissolved. Brine containing 1 gram of salt per liter is then pu

mped into the tank at a rate of 6 L/min; the well-mixed solution is pumped out at the same rate. Find the number A(t) of grams of salt in the tank at time t.

Answer:

\boxed{240 - 230e^{-\frac{t}{40}}}

Explanation:

\text{Let A = mass of salt after t min}\\\text{and }r_{i} = \text{rate of salt coming into talk}\\\text{and }r_{o}$ =\text{rate of salt going out of tank}

1. Set up an expression for the rate of change of salt concentration.

\dfrac{\text{d}A}{\text{d}t} = r_{i} - r_{o}\\\\r_{i} = \dfrac{\text{6 L}}{\text{1 min}} \times \dfrac{\text{1 g}}{\text{1 L}} = \text{6 g/min}\\\\r_{o} = \dfrac{\text{6 L}}{\text{1 min}} \times \dfrac {A\text{ g}}{\text{240 L}} =\dfrac{x}{40}\text{ g/min}\\\\\dfrac{\text{d}A}{\text{d}t} = 6 - \dfrac{x}{40}

2. Integrate the expression

\dfrac{\text{d}A}{\text{d}t} = \dfrac{240 - x}{40}\\\\\dfrac{\text{d}A}{240 - A} = \dfrac{\text{d}t}{40}\\\\\int \frac{\text{d}A}{240 - A} = \int \frac{\text{d}t}{40}\\\\-\ln |240 - A| = \frac{t}{40} + C

3. Find the constant of integration

-\ln |240 - A| = \frac{t}{40} + C\\\\\text{At $t$ = 0, $A$ = 10, so}\\\\-\ln |240 - 10| = \frac{0}{40} + C\\\\C = -\ln 230

4. Solve for A as a function of time.

\text{The integrated rate expression is}-\ln |240 - A| = \frac{t}{40} - \ln 230\\\\\text{Solve for } A\\\\\ln|240 - A| = \ln 230 - \frac{t}{40}\\\\|240 - A| = 230e^{-\frac{t}{40}}\\\\240 - A = \pm 230e^{-\frac{t}{40}}\\\\x = 240 \pm 230e^{-\frac{t}{40}}\\\\A(0) = 10 \text{ so we choose the negative sign}\\\\x = \boxed{\mathbf{240 - 230e^{-\frac{t}{40}}}}

The diagram shows A as a function of time. The mass of salt in the tank starts at 10 g and increases asymptotically to 240 g.

Calculate the number of moles in the following: 2.8 X 10^24 atoms of Cl2
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 4.65 moles</h3>

Explanation:

To find the number of moles given it's number of entities we use the formula

n =  \frac{N}{L} \\

where n is the number of moles

N is the number of entities

L is the Avogadro's constant which is

6.02 × 10²³ entities

From the question

N = 2.8 × 10²⁴ atoms of Cl2

So we have

n =  \frac{2.8 \times  {10}^{24} }{6.02 \times  {10}^{23}  }  \\  = 4.65116279069...

We have the final answer as

<h3>4.65 moles</h3>

Hope this helps you

How to calculate moles
blondinia [14]

Explanation:

First you must calculate the number of moles in this solution, by rearranging the equation. No. Moles (mol) = Molarity (M) x Volume (L) = 0.5 x 2. = 1 mol.

For NaCl, the molar mass is 58.44 g/mol. Now we can use the rearranged equation. Mass (g) = No. Moles (mol) x Molar Mass (g/mol) = 1 x 58.44. = 58.44 g.
