- A long glass capillary with a diameter of 0.1 cm is in contact with water on one side and dry air on the other. Water vapor evaporates from the side in contact with water and diffuses through the capillary to the other side. Using the following given data, calculate the rate at which water evaporates in this system in [g/s].Isothermal diffusion (20℃)Vapor pressure of water 17.5 mmHg (20℃)Water diffusivity 0.3 cm2/s (20℃)Dry air pressure 760 mmHgDural length 10 cmGas constant R=82 cm3atm/mol K18 g/mol molecular weight of waterarrow_forwardIn this type of Fickian diffusion, the diffusing species is moving through a "stagnant" bed of another species in solution. -Unsteady-state Diffusion -None of the choices -Unimolecular Diffusion -Knudsen Diffusion -Equimolar Counter Diffusionarrow_forward1.6 Properties: Diffusivity Estimate the molecular diameter and diffusion coefficient for the proteins ribonuclease (MW 13,700 Da), hemoglobin (MW 68,000), and urease (MW 480,000), assuming the molecules are spherical and the density of each protein molecule is 1.3 g/cm³.arrow_forward
- 1arrow_forwardConsider a solid sphere, of radius R, which is placed in a large body of unstirred, aqueous solution, as shown in Figure 1. The dissolution of the solid A, is slow enough that quasi-steady-state can be assumed. Given the solubility of A in the solution is CA* at the surface of the sphere and assume there is a bulk diffusion in the solution (i.e. the term yA(NA+Nu) is not zero). 1.) Derive an expression for the concentration distribution of A in the solution; and 2.) develop a mathematical relationship for molar flow rate of A, entering the solution at the surface of the sphere. FLUID SOLID 'A' &r Rsarrow_forwardAcetic acid (CH3COOH) diffuses across a 1-mm thick film of non-diffusing water. The concentration of acetic acid on opposite sides of water film are 9% by weight (density=1012 kg/m³) and 4% by weight (density=1003.2 kg/m³). Calculate the rate of diffusion of acetic acid at 17 °C. DATA: The diffusivity of acetic acid in water at 25 °C = 1.11 x 109 m²/s Viscosity of acetic acid solution at 25 °C = 1.1336 x 10-³ Pa. Viscosity of acetic acid solution at 17 °C = 1.2883 x 10-³ Pa.sarrow_forward
- Please help, complete solution need.arrow_forwardA binary gaseous mixture of components A and B at a pressure of 1 bar and temperature of 300 K undergoes steady-state equimolar counter diffusion along a 1-mm-thick diffusion path. At one end of the path the mole fraction of component A is 70%, while at the other end it is 20%. Under these conditions, DAB = 0.1 cm2/s.

The sphere has a diameter of 16 mm. The sphere is suddenly immersed in turbulent water which initially contains urea of concentration 0.1 kg mol/m'. The diffusion coefficient of the urea in the gelatin gel is 8.59 * 10*" m/s. The convective mass transfer coefficient ke is 1.07375 x 10 m/s and the equilibrium distribution coefficient K is 1. For radial mass transfer only, listing your assumptions, calculate, (a) the concentration at a distance of 4,8 mm from the midpoint of the sphere after 25.87 hours of mass transfer. (b) the time by which the concentration, c, at the centre of the sphere is 0.09975 kg mol/m3arrow_forward
- A spherical mothball initially with radius, Ro, is shrinking in volume due to the sublimation of naphthalene through the air in a large room. At room temperature (T) and pressure (PT), the naphthalene (with molecular weight as MWa) in the mothball exerts a vapor pressure (VPa). It is of interest to investigate the rate at which the mothball is shrinking due to the diffusion of naphthalene in an air-rich environment. A. Illustrate the physical model/s that can describe the diffusion of naphthalene through the air-rich environment (room). Indicate the control volume/s (differential volume/s) as an expression of the transfer area and distance. Specify the components needed in establishing the shell balance. Indicate the boundary conditions and illustrate the direction of transfer in each physical model. Note: Express the radial distance from the mothball surface as r, while the shrinking radius of the mothball is expressed as R. Use and define subscripts, as necessary. B.
