Multi-stage flash distillation is used to desalinate seawater so it is fit for human consumption. a flash distillation tank is composed of small chambers (called \"stages\"), each at a lower pressure than the previous stage. salt water enters the first chamber, some fresh water flash evaporates, condenses, and is removed from the distillation tank. the remaining salt water moves to the next chamber, some fresh water flash evaporates, condenses, and is removed from the distillation tank. the remaining salt water moves to the next chamber, and the process repeats until very salty water is expelled as waste. brine that is 35,000 ppm salt is desalinated through a 5-stage flash distillation process. the pressure in the stages is such that 8% by mass of the water entering the stage evaporates and leaves as fresh water. if the desalination plant wants to produce 1400.0 gallons of drinking water per day, how many gallons of brine must the plant take in per day? the density of fresh water is 1.000 g/cm3. the density of brine is 1.025 g/cm3.

Alice did an experiment to find the relationship between the angle at which a ray of light strikes a mirror and the angle at which the mirror reflects the light. she placed a ray box in front of a mirror. she changed the angle at which the light from the ray box struck the mirror and noted the corresponding angle at which the mirror reflected the light. which of the following is the dependent variable in this experiment? the mirror used to reflect the light the ray box used as the source of light angle at which the light from the ray box strikes the mirror angle at which the mirror reflects the light from the ray box
