Scenario: A chemical plant releases a toxic organic compound into a nearby river. The compound is known to be soluble in water, with a solubility of 500 mg/L at 25°C. The river's flow rate is 100,000 L/min.
Task:
1. **Maximum amount dissolved:** * Solubility = 500 mg/L * River flow rate = 100,000 L/min * Maximum amount dissolved per minute: 500 mg/L * 100,000 L/min = 50,000,000 mg/min = 50 kg/min 2. **Exceeding solubility limit?** * Plant release = 10 kg/day * River flow rate = 100,000 L/min = 14,400,000 L/day * Concentration in river = 10 kg / 14,400,000 L = 0.69 mg/L **Conclusion:** The concentration of the compound in the river (0.69 mg/L) is significantly lower than its solubility limit (500 mg/L), meaning the compound will dissolve in the water and not cause immediate problems. However, long-term accumulation and other factors may still pose environmental risks.
