 Two streams flow into a 500.0-gallon tank. The first stream is
10.0 wt% ethanol and 90.0 wt% hexane (mixture density is p10.680 g/cm)

Two streams flow into a 500.0-gallon tank. The first stream is 10.0 wt% ethanol and 90.0 wt% hexane (mixture density is p10.680 g/cm) and the second is 90.0 wt% ethanol, 10.0 wt% hexane (mixture density P20.780 g/cm). After the tank has been filled, which takes 27.0 minutes, an analysis of its contents determines that it is 50.0 wt% ethanol and 50.0 wt% hexane. Estimate the density of the final mixture and the mass and volumetric flow rates of the two feed streams. Mass flow rate of stream 1: kg/min Volumetric flow rate of stream 1: L/min Mass flow rate of stream 2: kg/min Volumetric flow rate of stream 2: L/min Volumetric flow rate of stream 2: i L/min Density of mixure: g/cm3 e Textbook and Media GO Tutorial Save for Later Attempts: 0 of 3 used Submit
