Question
Benzene (A) diffuses into N2 (B) in a stable state in a pipe. Total pressure is 1 atm, temperature is 25°C. The partial pressure of benzene at one end of the tube is PA1=0.120 atm and the circular area is 929 cm2. At the other end of the pipe, the partial pressure at the end of benzene at a distance of 91.44 cm is PA2=0.025 atm and the circular area is 1393 cm2. The tube is shaped like a smooth cone. The molecular diffusion coefficient of benzene at 1 atm and 25°C is 0.088 cm2 /s. Calculate the molar flux of benzene at steady state in g mol/s for equal molar counter diffusion

The partial pressure of ammonia is 25.33 kPa at the left end and 5.066 kPa at the other end. The cross section of the conduit is in the shape of a circle, the diamater being 0.0610 m at the left end and tapering uniformly to 0.0305 m at the right end.
