(10 Pts.) The solute HCI is diffusing through a film of water 2 mm thick at 100°C. The concentration of HCL at one boundary of the film is 12 wt% HCl (p=1.060 g/ml), at the other boundary it is 6 wt% HC1 (p=1.060 g/ml). The diffusion coefficient of HCl in water is 0.09 cm²/h. Calculate the flux of HCl in kgmol/m² assuming that one boundary is impermeable to water.

) (10 Pts.) The solute HC1 is diffusing through a film of water 2 mm thick at 100°C. The
concentration of HCL at one boundary of the film is 12 wt% HCl (p=1.060 g/ml), at the other
boundary it is 6 wt% HC1 (p=1.060 g/ml). The diffusion coefficient of HCl in water is 0.09
cm²/h. Calculate the flux of HCl in kgmol/m² assuming that one boundary is impermeable to
water.
