Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
A tank initially holds 600,000 kg of sludge. If 120,000 kg of water is added, calculate the new concentration of chemical A assuming no A was in the water, and the initial concentration of A in the sludge is 250 mg/kg dry solids.
💡 Hint: Use the mass balance equation and ensure all units match.
Analyze how introducing rainwater containing a chemical affects the overall mass balance and the methods used to assess equilibrium conditions.
💡 Hint: Think about how the new chemical mixes with existing elements and affects distribution.
