Q2)
Calculate the rate of diffusion of n-Butanol (A) across a film of non-diffusing water (B)
solution of 1 mm thick at 25°C. The concentrations of n-Butanol on the opposite sides of
the film are known to be 12 wt% and 4 wt% respectively.
Data:
the diffusivity of (A) in the solution is 0.95×10° m²/sec at 25°C, the density of (A) is 810
kg/m', the density of (B) is 1000 kg/m³ , Mwt(Butanol)
= 74.12 g/gmol, Mwt(Water)= 18
g/gmol.
