In the steady state the material balance equation for any component of a system is

rate of addition + rate of removal - rate of formation = 0
rate of addition - rate of removal + rate of formation = 0
rate of addition + rate of removal + rate of formation = 0
none of the above

Correct Answer: rate of addition - rate of removal + rate of formation = 0
