What is the flow rate of the inlet water stream


The shark tank at an aquarium houses 5 sharks that deplete theaquarium water of a total of 50.00 grams of oxygen per hour. Waterfrom the tank is diverted through a bubbler unit that oxygenatesthe water using a stream of oxygen-rich air, and then is returnedto the tank. At steady state, water enters the bubbler containing0.000700 wt% O2 and exits the bubbler containing0.001000 wt% O2. For every kilogram of the inletwater stream that enters the bubbler, 0.00500 mol of oxygen-richair with an initial composition of 40.00 mole% O2 and60.00 mole% N2 is fed through the bubbler.
1. What independent equations/relations can you write for thisprocess?
2. What is the flow rate of the inlet water stream? (Inkg/hour)
3. What is the mole percent of O2 in the outlet airstream?
