Determine the carburizing time necessary to achieve a carbon concentration of 0.50 wt% at a position 2.0 mm into an iron-carbon alloy that initially contains 0.18 wt% C. The surface concentration is to be maintained at 1.1 wt% C, and the treatment is to be conducted at 1060°C. Assume that Do = 5.3 x 105 m2/s and Qd=130 kJ/mol. The table Tabulation of Error Function Values may be useful.

Rank the magnitudes of the diffusion coefficients from greatest to least for the following systems: N in Fe at 700°C Cr in Fe at 700°C N in Fe at 900°C Cr in Fe at 900°C Now justify this ranking. (Note: Both Fe and Cr have the BCC crystal structure, and the atomic radii for Fe, Cr, and N are 0.124, 0.125, and 0.065 nm, respectively. You may also want to refer to Section 5.4.)
