8 In a chemical reaction in which a compound B is formed from a compound


A and other substances. The rate of increase in the mass of compound B at
any instant is proportional to mass of compound A present at that time. The
mass of compound A at the start of the process is P, and the mass of
compound B at the time t minutes after the start of the process is x.
By assuming x to be a continuous variable, write a differential equation to
describe this chemical process.
