A mixture of He and N2 gas is contained in a tube at 298 K and 101.32 kPa total pressure. At one point the partial pressure of He is pA1=60.79 kPa and at a point 0.25 m distance away, pA2=20.26 kPa. If the total pressure is constant throughout the tube, calculate the flux of He at steady state if DAB of the He-N2 mixture is 0.687x10-4 m2/s

Question

A mixture of He and N2 gas is contained in a tube at 298 K and 101.32 kPa total
pressure. At one point the partial pressure of He is pA1=60.79 kPa and at a point 0.25 m
distance away, pA2=20.26 kPa. If the total pressure is constant throughout the tube,
calculate the flux of He at steady state if DAB of the He-N2 mixture is 0.687x10-4 m2/s.
