Interactive Quizzes

Engage in quick quizzes to reinforce what you've learned and check your comprehension.

Question 1

What does the mass balance equation express?

  • Rate of Input = Rate of Output
  • Rate of Accumulation = Rate in - Rate out
  • Rate of Change = Mass Transfer

💡 Hint: Focus on the relationship between what's coming in and going out.

Question 2

True or False: Evaporation plays no role in the mass balance of pollutants.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Remember how pollutants can enter the air.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A factory continuously admits 500 kg of a pollutant every week into a lake while 200 kg are evaporated. Calculate the total mass of the pollutant after 4 weeks and discuss the implications.

💡 Hint: Use the mass balance equation to track inputs and outputs.

Question 2

If the lake has an initial concentration of 4400 kg of a pollutant and it is diluted by a rainfall of 1000 cubic meters with a clean water influx, what happens to the concentration?

💡 Hint: Consider how dilution works when additional water is introduced.
