The concentration of salt ? g/L in homemade soap is given as a function of time as follows: ??/dt = (0.37? − 0.03)? At the initial time, ? = 0 minute, the salt concentration is 20 g/L. Choose a step size in a range of 1 < h ≤ 1.5 minutes for the interval from 0 to 8h minutes and apply THREE (3) numerical methods to compute the salt concentration. Select the best numerical method to estimate the salt concentration and justify your answer.

Consider a fluid layer A surrounded on both sides by a fluid, B. The fluid
layer can be thought of as a membrane. A species S is diffusing across this
membrane, and has concentrations c and c (in the fluid B) on the two sides
of the membrane, as shown in Fig. 7.28. It often happens that the solubility of
material S inside the membrane is different than its solubility in bulk solution
B. We therefore define a partition coefficient k as
concentration of S in material A (at equilibrium)
(7.30)
concentration of S in material B
Hence k 1
means S is more soluble. Write down an expression for the flux across the
membrane in terms of c, c, DA (diffusion coefficient of S in A) and Aya.
Sketch the concentration profile. What is the effective diffusion coefficient
value with partitioning, De?

- 3 A farmer has a 10-heactare maize farm. The maize is under “Fall Army Worm” attack. The farmer has to urgently control the attack using a chemical called AGENOX 221. Motorized sprayers with tank capacities of 15 litres each are to be used. The recommended concentration of the chemical is 2 ml/L and each full tank will cover ½ hectare. A 50-man team is engaged to control the attack. Using the above information and the assumptions given below: i. What volume of the chemical is required to cover the entire field to control the “Fall Army Worm” attack? ii. If each man covers an area of 25 m2 from one end of the field to the other, how many trips will each of them make to cover the entire field? Assume ach man moves in a straight line. Assumptions: 1. The 10 ha farm is considered to be a perfect square. 2. There is a 2.5 % loss of chemical due to the transfer to the sprayer tank.arrow_forwardYou are analyzing the following (not necessarily well designed) process: At the start of the process, there two fluid streams, one containing species ‘A’ at a concentration of 2mol/l (Stream 1) and one containing species ‘B’ at a concentration of 3mol/l (Stream 2). Each stream has a control valve near the start of the process. Stream 1 has a temperature of 90°C and Stream 2 has a temperature of 70°C. The two streams enter a motorized mixer. A single stream exits the mixer (Stream 3). Stream 3 then enters a stirred tank reactor where nA+mB⟶C. The exit stream (Stream 4) enters a fluid separator. Out of the separator are two streams, one containing species ‘A’ and ‘B’ (Stream 5) and the other containing species ‘C’ at concentration of 1.5mol/l (Stream 6). Stream 5 goes back into the mixer. Stream 6 goes through a pump and another control valve. This stream is then cooled in a shell and tube heat exchanger using a cooled water stream that is at a temperature of 15°C.
