Question

6.1-2. Diffusion of CO, in a Binary Gas Mixture. The gas CO2 is diffusing at stcady state through a tube 0.20 m long having a diameter of 0.01 m and containing N2 at 298 K. The total pressure is constant at 101.32 kPa. The partial pressure of CO2 at one end is 456 mm Hg and 76 mm Hg at the other end. The diffusivity Dan is 1.67 x 10-5 m2/s at 298 K. Calculate the flux of CO2 in cgs and SI units for equimolar counterdiffusion

Answer 1

Heat flux of CO₂ in cgs

= 170.86 x 10⁻⁹ mol / cm²s

SI units

170.86 x 10⁻⁸ kmol/m²s
