Chapter 1.2, Problem 20E

Nitric acid is prepared commercially by a series of three chemical reactions. In the first reaction, nitrogen ( N 2 ) is combined with hydrogen ( H 2 ) to form ammonia ( N H 3 ) . Next the ammonia is combined with oxygen ( O 2 ) to form nitrogen dioxide ( N O 2 ) and water. Finally, the N O 2 reacts with some of the water to form nitric acid ( H N O 3 ) and nitric oxide ( N O ) . The amounts of each of the components of these reactions are measured in moles (a standard unit of measurement for chemical reactions). How many moles of nitrogen, hydrogen, and oxygen are necessary to produce 8 moles of nitric acid?

1 A tank originally contains 100 gal of fresh water. Then water containing lb of salt per gallon is poured into the tank at a rate of 2 2 gal/min, and the mixture is allowed to leave at the same rate. After 10 min the process is stopped, and fresh water is poured into the tank at a rate of 6 gal/min, with the mixture again leaving at the same rate. Find the amount of salt in the tank at the end of an additional 10 min. Round your answer to two decimal places. i 4.13 lbs
Two yeast populations are grown in a lab on campus. The first population grows according the DDS given by an = 1.13-an-1 with an =14000, while the second population grows according to bn = 1.14. bn-1 with bo = 9000. If n is easured in weeks, in how many weeks will the populations of the two populations be equal? (a) Which approach would you use to solve this problem? Set the explicit solution of an equal to that of b, and solve for Set the two DDS equations equal to 0 and solve for n Set the explicit solution of each DDS to 0 and solve for n Set the DDS for an equal to be and solve for n (b) The two populations will be equal after accurate to 2 decimal places as needed. weeks. Round your answer
Consider the mixing process shown in the figure. A mixing chamber initially contains 3 liters of a clear liquid. Clear liquid flows into the chamber at a rate of 10 liters per minute. A dye solution having a concentration of 0.4 kilograms per liter is injected into the mixing chamber at a constant rate of r liters per minute. When the mixing process is started, the well-stirred mixture is pumped from the chamber at a rate of 10 + r liters per minute. (a) Develop a mathematical model for the mixing process, Let Q represent the amount of dye in kilograms in the mixture. dQ 0.4r-(Q/3)(10+) kg/min dr (b) The objective is to obtain a dye concentration in the outflow mixture of 0.25 kilograms per liter. What injection rate r is required to achieve this equilibrium solution? L/min Would this equilibrium value of r be different if the fluid in the chamber at time I = 0 contained some dye? no (c) Assume the mixing chamber contains 3 liters of clear liquid at time t = 0. How many minutes will it…
