Q1. Water enters a 2.00-m3 tank at a rate of 6.00 kg/s and is withdrawn at a rate of 3.00 kg/s.

The tank is initially half full.

 Is this process continuous, batch, or semi batch? Is it transient or steady state?
 Write a mass balance for the process. Identify the terms of the general balance equation present in your equation
and state the reason for omitting any terms.
 How long will the tank take to overflow?
D=m/v 1000 kg/m3=m/1 m3 m=1000kg
Q2. CO2 passes through a drum of sugar solution at a rate of 0.100 kmol/min. The gas stream leaving the drum contains
10.0 mole% solution vapour. CO2 may be considered insoluble in solution. Use an integral balance to estimate the time
required to vaporize 10.0 m3 of the liquid. (assume the specific gravity of sugar solution is 1.1).

Q3. 35,000 kg of whole milk containing 4% fat is to be separated in a 6 hours period into skim milk (0.45% fat) and cream
(45% fat). From this separator, cream flows at a rate of 400 kg/h. Calculate the flow rates of the fat in both output
streams?

Q4. Eggs are sorted into two sizes (large and extra-large) at the Cheerful Chicken Dairy. Unfortunately, Cheerful Chicken’s
40-year-old egg-sorting machine finally gave up and there have been no funds available to replace it. Instead, Old Fred,
has been equipped with a “Large” rubber stamp in his right hand and an “X-large” stamp in his left to stamp each egg with
the appropriate label as it goes by on the conveyor belt. Down the line, another employee puts the eggs into either of two
hoppers, each egg according to its stamp. The system works reasonably well, all things considered, except that Old Fred
has a heavy hand and on the average breaks 30% of the 120 eggs that pass by him each minute. At the same time, a check
of the “X-large” stream reveals a flow rate of 70 eggs/min, of which 25 eggs/min are broken.
 Draw and label a flowchart for this process.
 Write and solve balances about the egg sorter on total eggs and broken eggs.
 How many “large” eggs leave the plant each minute, and what fraction of them are broken?
 Is Old Fred right- or left-handed?
Q5. Three hundred gallons of a mixture containing 75.0 wt% glucose and 25% water (mixture specific gravity 1.5) and a
quantity of a 40.0 wt% glucose –60% water mixture (SG 1.1) are blended to produce a mixture containing 60.0 wt%
glucose. The object of this problem is to determine, the required volume V40 of the 40% mixture.
 Draw and label a flowchart of the mixing process and do the degree-of-freedom analysis.
 Calculate V40.
