Final answer:
To find the mass flow rate of diethyl ether, you would multiply its density by the given volumetric flow rate. The density of diethyl ether is needed for this calculation, and if provided, the mass flow rate in kg/s can be obtained by the formula: Mass flow rate = Density x Volumetric flow rate.
Step-by-step explanation:
To calculate the mass flow rate of diethyl ether knowing the volumetric flow rate, we need to use the formula:
Mass flow rate = Density × Volumetric flow rate
However, the density of diethyl ether is not provided in the question or the reference information. Assuming we had the density, let's say ρ kg/m³, the calculation would be as follows, with the given volumetric flow rate of 0.36 m³/s:
Mass flow rate = ρ × 0.36 kg/s
For example, if the density of diethyl ether was 713 kg/m³ (hypothetical value), the mass flow rate would be:
Mass flow rate = 713 kg/m³ × 0.36 m³/s = 256.68 kg/s
The actual density of diethyl ether needs to be known or provided in order to make the specific calculation for diethyl ether.
