Xylene (C8H10, ρ = 704 kg/m3 ) is flowing in a pipe with a diameter of 100 mm at a velocity of 2.2 m/s. (a) Calculate the volumetric flow rate in m3 /s. (b) Calculate the mass flow rate in kg/s. (c) Calculate the molar flow rate in mol/s. (d) The 100 mm pipe is joined to two smaller pipes with diameters of 25 mm and 50 mm respectively. If the velocity of the n-Octane in the smaller pipe is 1.5 m/s what is the fluid velocity in the larger pipe. (e) What are the volumetric flows for the two pipes in (d) above. (f) The 25 mm diameter pipe discharges into a 10m3 tank. Calculate the time it would take to fill the tank
