A lake receives 8 m3/s of inflow containing 0.3 mol/m3 of a chemical. The chemical reacts with a first order rate constant of 0.01 h-1. The outflow from the lake is also 8 m3/s. Assume there was no chemical in the lake at the beginning and volume of the lake is 106 m3. What will be the concentration changing rate of this chemical in this lake assuming the concentration of such chemical at certain time is X mol/m3 in the lake.
