A gas of CH4 and He is contained in a tube at 101.32 kPa pressure and 298 K. At one point the partial pressure of methane is 60.79 kPa and at a point 0.02 m distance away, the partial pressure of methane is 20.26 kPa. If the total pressure is constant throughout the tube, calculate the flux of CH4 at steady state for equimolar counterdiffusion.

Diffusion of Ethanol (A) through water (B)

An ethanol-water solution in the form of a stagnant film 2.0 mm thick at 293 is in contact at one surface with an organic solvent in which ethanol is soluble and water is insoluble. At point 1, the concentration of ethanol is 16.8 wt% and the solution density is 972.8 kg/m3. At point 2, the concentration of ethanol is 6.8 wt% and the solution density is 988.1 kg/m3. The diffusivity of ethanol is 0.740 E-09 m2/s. Caclulate the steady-state flux.

Vaporizing A and Convective Mass Transfer

A large volume of pure gas B at 2 atm pressure is flowing over a surface from which pure A is vaporizing. The liquid A completely wets the surface, which is a blotting paper. Hence, the partial pressure of A at the surface is the vapor pressure of A at 298 K, which is 0.20 atm. The k'y has been estimated to be 6.78 E-05 kgmol/s m2 mol frac. Calculate the vaporization rate.
