Q.2. The purification of hydrogen gas by diffusion through a palladium sheet: Compute the number of kilograms of hydrogen that pass per hour (kg/h) through a 5-mm-thick sheet of palladium having an area of 0.25 m² at 500°C. The concentrations at the high- and low-pressure sides of the plate are 2.4 and 0.6 kg of hydrogen per cubic meter of palladium, and that steady-state conditions have been attained. Diffusion coefficient D= 1x10 m²/s

Q.2. The purification of hydrogen gas by diffusion through a palladium sheet:
Compute the number of kilograms of hydrogen that pass per hour (kg/h) through a 5-mm-thick sheet of
palladium having an area of 0.25 m² at 500°C. The concentrations at the high- and low-pressure sides of the
plate are 2.4 and 0.6 kg of hydrogen per cubic meter of palladium, and that steady-state conditions have
been attained.
Diffusion coefficient D= 1x10 m²/s
