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.

When is a covalent bond described as polar? Choose one: when electrons are transferred from one atom to another if covalently bo
melomori [17]

Answer:

if electrons are shared unequally between bonded atoms

Explanation:

A polar covalent bond is a bond that is formed due to the unequal distribution of electrons between two partially charged atoms. This is observed when the difference in electronegativity between the bond atoms is between 0.5 and 1.7.

A polar bond is a covalent bond between two atoms where the electrons that form the bond are unevenly distributed. This causes the molecule to have a slight electric dipole moment where one end is slightly positive and the other is slightly negative.

The charge of the electric dipoles is less than a full unit charge, so they are considered partial charges and are called delta plus (δ +) and delta minus (δ-).

Because positive and negative charges are separated at the bond, molecules with polar covalent bonds interact with the dipoles of other molecules. This produces intermolecular dipole-dipole forces between the molecules.

DENIUS [597]

Answer:

The mass of potassium required to produce a known mass of potassium chloride

Explanation:

Stoichiometry deals with the relationship between amount of substances, mass of substances or volume of substances required in a chemical reaction. Stoichiometric relationships may involve reactants alone or reactants and products. These relationships are normally in the form of simple proportion.

A typical example is our answer option, the mass of potassium required could be used to determine the mass of potassium chloride produced after a balanced reaction equation is written.

I am not positive this is what you want but here lol:

The Earth's surface is about 71 percent water spreading over many oceans, rivers, and lakes. This also includes the droplets of water on the morning grass, the undrained water from the rain, puddles that never evaporated, etc. As this water is heated up by the Sun, its' molecules start to move faster as it turns into gas and evaporates. As it evaporates it rises, however, the cooler temperatures in the high altitude of Earth's atmosphere make it condense into large clouds. When so much water has evaporated and the cloud very dense, gravity brings down the water from the clouds onto the ground in the form of rain. This completes the water cycle as the water will either turn into runoff, stay on the surface of the Earth, or seep into the ground. Then the water evaporates again, and the whole process starts over.

*Hope this helped!! Have a good night/ day wherever you are! : )*
