Question
![Consider dissolving CO₂ in an alkaline solution containing a catalyst. The solution is in a beaker
of height L = 0.5 cm. The absorbed CO₂ reacts irreversibly according to a first-order kinetic law
with k = 35 s¹. The solubility of CO₂ in the solution is equal to 3×10¹² kmol/m³ and the diffusion
coefficient is equal to 1.5×10⁹ m²/s. Knowing that transport of CO₂ through the solution at
steady state results in:
C
40
AB
cosh L√₁/DB (1-2/L)]
cosh L√k/DAB
Also calculate the dissolution rate of CO₂ and its average concentration in the solution.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2Fdb53db6f-0c4e-40cf-89af-bdafff524099%2F014efe40-11d9-4bad-9a76-c5ea39ed6f86%2Fd8v7vkm_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
