Q5: The gas CO₂ is diffusing at steady state through a tube 20 cm long having a diameter of 1cm at 350k (Stagnant diffusion). The total pressure is constant at 101.32 kpa. The partial pressure of CO₂ at one end is 60.78 kpa and 10.13 kpa at other end. The diffusivity DAB is 0.167 cm²/s at 298k, calculate (1) The rate of CO₂ if the partial pressure remains constant. (2) calculate the total pressure to double the transfer rate.
