Mixing of citric acid takes place in a 12-liter capacity tank. The tank has

initially (t = 0), 4 Liters of fresh water (no citric acid). Citric acid solution stream at 0.1 kg/L concentration enters the tank at a rate = 0.1 L/min. The citric acid solution leaves out from a

nozzle in the tank at a rate = (t+1) L/min. Assume the tank is well-mixed and no reaction takes place.

1. Sketch and label the tank and show if the system is steady state or not, why?

2. Derive the ODE that show the relationship between citric acid concentration and

time?

3. Solve the ODE to get a relationship between Citric acid concentration and time?

A farmer has a mixing tank of capacity 1200 liters which she half-filled with pure, fresh water. She pumps into the tank a concentrated liquid fertilizer (CLF) at rate 3 liters/minute, containing 1/3 ∼ 0.333 kg/liter of nitrate (a salt of nitric acid). In addition, she pours the dry powder fertilizer (DPF, the same chemical as a soluble powder) at rate 1/12 = 0.08333 kg/min in the tank; her aim is to get a right solution concentration 0.12kg/liter for the...
